Bill > HB77

This bill allows state and local law-enforcement officers to enforce federal traffic infractions on any highway within Planning District 8, a specific geographic region. This means that if a traffic violation is against federal law but not state law, and it occurs on a highway within Planning District 8, law enforcement can issue citations for it. The bill also clarifies that this authority extends to highways located on property that Virginia has transferred to the federal government, provided there is concurrent jurisdiction. Additionally, it permits the use of photo speed monitoring devices, commonly known as speed cameras, on these National Park highways within Planning District 8, but only after obtaining authorization from the federal government or the National Park Service. The bill defines "National Park highway" as a highway within Planning District 8 on federally transferred property with concurrent jurisdiction, maintained by the National Park Service.
