Bill > H3062

This bill makes several changes to traffic laws, primarily affecting bicyclists and the penalties associated with their violations, while also removing the word "motor" from numerous sections related to motor vehicles to broaden their applicability or clarify existing rules. Key provisions include requiring bicycles to not exceed the running speed of a pedestrian, increasing fines for various bicyclist traffic law violations from twenty dollars to eighty dollars and other amounts up to five hundred dollars, and introducing consequences for nonpayment of bicycle fines, such as the suspension or non-renewal of a driving license, with specific provisions for minors. Additionally, the bill clarifies that certain traffic law violations by bicyclists will not affect their motor vehicle license status, and it updates terminology to include "two and three wheeled vehicle" instead of just "motorcycle" in some instances, and removes "motor" from many section titles and text related to motor vehicles to potentially encompass a wider range of vehicles or to streamline language.
