Bill > A04011

This bill establishes a new system for suspending vehicle registrations for repeated speeding violations in highway construction or maintenance work areas using photo speed violation monitoring systems. Specifically, if a vehicle owner receives five or more notices of liability for speeding within an 18-month period in a controlled-access highway work zone, the vehicle's registration will be automatically suspended for 90 days. The bill amends the vehicle and traffic law to require that notices of liability include a warning about this potential registration suspension, and it updates administrative processes for reporting these violations. The goal appears to be enhancing safety in highway work zones by creating a stronger deterrent for repeated speeding in these potentially dangerous areas. The law will take effect one year after becoming official, and will apply to violations committed on or after that date. The bill uses technical language related to traffic law, such as references to specific subdivisions of section 1180 of the vehicle and traffic code, and introduces a new mechanism for penalizing repeated speeding in work zones beyond traditional monetary fines.
