This bill establishes a new speed limit of 15 miles per hour for vehicles operating on highways or streets closed to nonemergency motor vehicles. It applies to any individual driving on these restricted roads, regardless of whether they are exempt from the general closure rules. Violating this speed restriction is classified as a civil infraction. The law amends the Michigan Vehicle Code to create this specific exception for closed roads.
