Introduced by: John S. Edwards | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
School zone speed limit photo-enforcement system. Allows a locality having its own school district or school system to provide by ordinance for the establishment of a school zone speed limit photo-enforcement system imposing monetary liability on the operator of a motor vehicle for failure to comply with the speed limit in a school zone or school crossing in such locality. Proof of a violation of this section shall be evidenced by information obtained from a school zone speed limit photo-enforcement system. In the prosecution for a violation of any local ordinance adopted as provided in this section, prima facie evidence that the vehicle described in the summons issued pursuant to this section was operated in violation of such ordinance, together with proof that the defendant was at the time of such violation the owner, lessee, or renter of the vehicle, shall constitute in evidence a rebuttable presumption that such owner, lessee, or renter of the vehicle was the person who committed the violation. Imposition of a penalty pursuant to this section shall not be deemed a conviction as an operator and shall not be made part of the operating record of the person upon whom such liability is imposed, nor shall it be used for insurance purposes in the provision of motor vehicle insurance coverage. No monetary penalty imposed under this section shall exceed $50, nor shall it include court costs.
