AI Summary
This bill amends Arizona's laws to prohibit pedestrians from congregating or soliciting on certain unsafe locations, such as traffic islands, medians, highway ramps, and intersections without sidewalks. For a first violation, a peace officer can only issue a warning. A second violation results in a civil traffic violation, while a third or subsequent violation is a class 1 misdemeanor. The purpose of this law is to enhance pedestrian safety by restricting congregating or soliciting in areas that could potentially disrupt traffic flow or put pedestrians at risk.
