Establishes certain requirements relating to notices of road hazards and road closures. (BDR 35-406)
SB 53 requires navigation apps (like Google Maps or Waze) to incorporate real-time road hazard and closure information from cities, counties, or transportation authorities into their services within 48 hours. This applies to providers offering turn-by-turn navigation with real-time traffic data for Nevada highways, excluding smaller apps with fewer than 10 million monthly users. Failure to comply incurs a $500 daily penalty until the update is made or the road condition resolves. The bill also mandates Nevada’s Department of Transportation to create an electronic system for local entities to submit road condition data for public access via platforms like Nevada 511.
