What changed between versions
Added a new offense for 'dangerous spinning' where a person knowingly or intentionally operates a vehicle to cause rotational skids, creating a Class B misdemeanor that can escalate to higher felonies if it endangers people or causes injury.
Changed the citation from IC 9-21-12-1 to IC 9-21-8-52, which modifies how reckless driving is defined and penalized, expanding it beyond just school bus passing violations to include various dangerous driving behaviors.
Updated the effective date from January 31, 2025 to January 29, 2025 for the reprinted version, and changed the digest update date from January 30 to January 28, 2025.
Added exemptions for off-road recreation areas where rotational skids are permitted, clarifying that the dangerous spinning offense does not apply in those locations.
