Bill Summary
A BILL FOR AN ACT relating to motor vehicles; to amend section 60-3202, Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, and sections 60-601 and 60-605, Revised Statutes Supplement, 2025; to provide for enforcement of the maximum lawful speed limit for highway work zones by means of a speed control enforcement system and to define terms under the Nebraska Rules of the Road; to redefine automatic license plate reader system under the Automatic License Plate Reader Privacy Act; and to repeal the original sections.
AI Summary
This bill amends Nebraska law to allow for the use of "speed control enforcement systems," which are defined as devices that detect and record vehicle speed and capture images of license plates when a vehicle exceeds the speed limit, to enforce speed limits in "highway work zones" (areas for maintenance, repair, or construction). This enforcement is permitted only if there are workers present, clear signage warns drivers about the system, and a law enforcement officer is visibly present in a marked vehicle. The bill also specifies that these systems will only record a vehicle if it is traveling more than eleven miles per hour over the posted speed limit. Additionally, the bill clarifies the definition of an "automatic license plate reader system" under the Automatic License Plate Reader Privacy Act, explicitly excluding speed control enforcement systems used in highway work zones from this definition.
