AI Summary

  • Authorizes cities, counties, and the Department of Public Safety to install automated traffic enforcement systems (speed and red-light cameras) at locations where traditional enforcement has failed, violation rates are high, or crash rates are elevated due to traffic violations.

  • Requires a 30-day public information campaign before issuing citations, warning signs within 300 feet of cameras, and peace officer review of all evidence before citations are mailed to registered vehicle owners.

  • Violations detected by automated systems are civil infractions with a maximum penalty of $100, do not count as moving violations, do not add demerit points to driving records, and cannot be used by insurers to raise rates or cancel policies.

  • Creates a rebuttable presumption that the registered owner was the driver, which can be challenged by providing an affidavit identifying who had custody of the vehicle or proving the vehicle was stolen.

  • Civil penalty revenue must be used to defray system costs and fund traffic safety programs including pedestrian safety, enforcement, and intersection improvements; effective January 1, 2026.
