Bill Summary
A bill to amend 1949 PA 300, entitled"Michigan vehicle code,"by amending section 726c (MCL 257.726c), as amended by 2016 PA 304.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Michigan Vehicle Code to modify regulations regarding county road commission agents. Specifically, the bill removes existing provisions that require road commission agents to wear a visible shoulder patch identifying their government branch and prohibit them from carrying firearms while enforcing certain traffic and road-related sections of the vehicle code. By deleting these restrictions, the bill would allow county road commission agents more flexibility in their enforcement duties, potentially including the ability to carry firearms even if they are not licensed police officers. The bill appears to be expanding the discretionary powers of road commission agents by removing previous limitations on their uniform identification and weapons carry status. The change applies to specific sections of the vehicle code related to traffic and road regulations, such as sections covering vehicle movement, parking, and road use.
