What’s in it
Current law provides that the speed limit for all vehicular traffic is miles per hour (mph) unless otherwise provided for by other speed restrictions. _____ controlled-access, divided, multilaned highways is mph. The speed limit on highways that are part of the interstate road system is mph.285(5)(a). This bill increases the speed limit on highways that are part of the interstate road system to mph and on noninterstate highways that are part of the commercial and industrial highway network to mph.
Read the full explanation
8A(14)(i) (road work zone violations). However, a school bus violation of more than mph in excess of the limit is not a scheduled violation and is punishable as a simple misdemeanor. A simple misdemeanor is punishable by confinement for no more than days or a fine of at least $105 but not more than $855 or by both. The bill doubles the applicable fines for violating a speed limit in a road work zone.
