Baltimore County - Speed Monitoring Systems - Interstate 695 and Interstate 83
SB 338 authorizes the State Highway Administration to install up to four speed monitoring systems per direction on Interstate 695 and three per direction on Interstate 83 in Baltimore County, targeting high-risk crash locations. It requires that fines collected from violations on these highways be used exclusively for roadway and safety improvements on the same routes. The bill also mandates that the Department of State Police send warning notices (not citations) for first-time violations during an initial implementation period. This legislation directly affects drivers using these specific interstate segments in Baltimore County, with the key change being the dedicated funding of speed-monitoring fines for local road safety projects.

MINOR
The bill was finalized as an enrolled version, removing internal legislative tracking numbers and committee status while adding a formal seal and presentation date for the Governor. The core policy text regarding speed monitoring systems on Interstate 695 and 83 in Baltimore County remains substantively unchanged, though minor formatting adjustments were made to the legal definitions and fine distribution clauses.
Scope change
The bill's scope and applicability remain identical to the previous version; no new locations, time periods, or vehicle types were added or removed.
TECHNICAL
Removed internal Senate bill tracking numbers, committee report status, and amendment markup instructions that are no longer relevant in the final enrolled version.
Added a formal placeholder for the Great Seal, presentation date, and signature line to finalize the bill for the Governor's approval.
Adjusted line breaks and spacing in the legal text to conform to the standard format of an enrolled bill, though the substantive legal language is unchanged.
