traffic violation; judge; signature; requirement

The bill was transferred from the House to the Senate, changing the version title from 'House Engrossed' to 'Senate Engrossed'. The most significant substantive change is a shift in authority for signing traffic citations: the presiding judge is no longer required to sign citations generated by photo enforcement systems, and this responsibility has been transferred to the mayor of the municipality where the violation occurred. This change alters the enforcement mechanism by requiring local mayors rather than judges to validate these specific citations, though the consequences of a missing signature (dismissal of the citation) remain the same.
