Traffic Safety - As introduced, imposes state and local litigation taxes on a person who violates the prohibition against using a wireless telecommunications device or stand-alone electronic device while operating a motor vehicle; removes the ten-dollar cap on court costs imposed for such violations. - Amends TCA Section 55-8-199.

HB 1555 removes the $10 cap on court costs for drivers convicted of using wireless devices while operating a vehicle in Tennessee. It directly affects drivers who violate the existing ban on handheld device use while driving, requiring them to pay higher court costs and new state/local litigation taxes. The bill amends Tennessee law (TCA Section 55-8-199) to replace the previous cost limit with a provision for "court costs and state and local litigation taxes" for these violations. The changes take effect July 1, 2026, applying to violations occurring on or after that date.
