AN ACT INCREASING PENALTIES FOR SPEEDING AND RECKLESS DRIVING.

HB 5062 increases penalties for speeding and reckless driving by raising fines and adding license points. Drivers caught speeding between 86-99 mph face fines of at least $500 and 2 license points, while those exceeding 99 mph would pay at least $1,000, receive 4 points, and face a 30-day license suspension without a hearing. The bill also mandates a minimum six-month license suspension for a third or subsequent speeding or reckless driving violation within a 10-year period. These changes directly affect drivers convicted of speeding offenses, with consequences including higher costs and loss of driving privileges.
