Bill > SF2233

This bill establishes a Task Force on Establishing a Yellow Alert System to design a public alert system for rapidly locating vehicles involved in hit-and-run accidents. The task force will consist of 12 members from various state agencies, law enforcement organizations, safety councils, and transportation experts, who will serve without compensation. Their primary duties include collecting data on hit-and-run accidents in Minnesota, analyzing alert systems from other states, determining the types of accidents that would trigger an alert (such as those causing bodily harm or death), developing procedures for information sharing and verification, and establishing a standard form for public notifications. The task force will meet monthly, with the first meeting scheduled by October 1, 2025, and will be required to submit a comprehensive report to legislative committees by January 15, 2026, detailing their findings and recommendations for legislation and funding. After submitting the report, the task force will be dissolved. The bill also includes an appropriation from the general fund to support the implementation of the task force, though the specific dollar amount is not specified in the provided text.
