Creating the crime of engaging in a street stunt, providing criminal penalties therefor and adding engaging in a street stunt to the list of crimes included in fleeing or attempting to elude a police officer.
SB 62 creates a new criminal offense in Kansas called "engaging in a street stunt," defined as operating two or more vehicles in a group while repeatedly violating traffic laws (like speeding, improper lane changes, or reckless driving) in a way that disrupts traffic flow, forces other drivers to stop or take evasive action for safety, damages property, or causes injury. Penalties include a Class A misdemeanor for first-time offenses involving traffic disruption, and felonies for causing damage or injury, with harsher penalties for repeat violations. The bill also amends existing law to include this new crime as a reason for additional charges when drivers flee or attempt to elude police. This law directly affects Kansas drivers who engage in such stunts, making them subject to these new criminal penalties.
