Bill > HB1211

This bill establishes a new penalty for "aggravated speeding," which is defined as driving over 100 miles per hour or more than 30 miles per hour above the posted speed limit. This enhanced penalty can be sought by the state when someone commits a felony offense, specifically those described in certain sections of Indiana Code related to battery and resisting law enforcement, while also engaging in aggravated speeding. If a person is convicted of such an offense and the state proves beyond a reasonable doubt that they were also aggravated speeding, the court can impose an additional fixed prison sentence of up to five years, which would be served consecutively to the original sentence for the felony. The process for determining this additional sentence depends on whether the conviction was reached through a jury trial or a plea agreement, with the jury reconvening for an enhancement hearing in the former case, and the judge alone hearing evidence in the latter.
