Qué contiene
Resumen con IA The definition of a pedestrian would expand to include people using certain electric-powered devices and other human-powered tools. This change means drivers would have the same legal duties to yield to these people as they do to anyone walking on foot. Bicyclists would only be treated as pedestrians when they are riding inside a crosswalk. (Todavía no está traducido al español.)1

Under current law, for purposes of Code chapter 321 (motor vehicles and law of the road), “pedestrian” means any person afoot. This bill amends the definition to include a person using a pedestrian conveyance, as defined in the bill.1(20B)) and electric-powered devices that produce less than 750 watts are specifically included as a pedestrian conveyance.366. In Code chapter 321, the term “pedestrian” is used for purposes relating to required driver education awareness instruction, official traffic-control signals directing pedestrian traffic, and requirements for persons operating a motor vehicle to yield or give signals to pedestrians. 340 provide pedestrians’ rights and duties, which are applicable to persons using pedestrian conveyances under the bill.8A(9)).482A enhances the fine and requires the department of transportation to suspend a person’s driver’s license in accordance with the Code section if the person is convicted of a specified violation, including certain actions against pedestrians and persons using pedestrian conveyances, that results in serious injury or death.234).
