Bill Summary
To establish secondary traffic violations and prohibit a law enforcement officer from stopping a motor vehicle for a secondary traffic violation.
AI Summary
This bill establishes "secondary violations" for certain traffic offenses, which means a law enforcement officer cannot stop a vehicle solely for a secondary violation. The bill also designates several existing violations as secondary, including failure to properly display a license plate, failure to illuminate the rear registration plate, failure to have two functioning headlamps, and minor windshield obstructions. Secondary violations may still be enforced through automated means, by mail, or if the vehicle is stopped for a non-secondary violation.
