Bill > SB1208

This bill modifies Hawaii's existing law regarding automated speed enforcement systems by expanding the list of authorized entities that can review and provide evidence of speed limit violations. Specifically, the bill allows authorized employees from the Department of Transportation and Department of Law Enforcement to inspect and certify speed violation evidence, in addition to county police departments. The bill defines a new term "reviewing entity" to include these additional authorized personnel. Furthermore, the bill appropriates $5,000,000 for fiscal years 2025-2026 and 2026-2027 to establish and implement the automated speed enforcement systems program, with funds to be spent by the Department of Transportation. The changes will enable more flexibility in reviewing and processing speed limit violation evidence and support the continued development of automated speed enforcement infrastructure. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, allowing time for implementation and preparation by the relevant departments.
