Traffic Safety - As enacted, establishes process regarding traffic violations committed by autonomous vehicles, including mailing the notice of violation or citation to the registered owner of the vehicle. - Amends TCA Title 55, Chapter 30 and Title 55, Chapter 8.

SB 2253 establishes a specific process for handling traffic violations committed by autonomous vehicles (self-driving cars) in Tennessee. It requires police to mail violation notices or citations directly to the vehicle's registered owner within 20 business days, rather than issuing them to the vehicle itself. The notice must include the fine amount, allow 30 days for payment (with a possible 30-day extension if a second notice is sent), and specify separate fees for late payment or court costs. This bill directly affects owners of autonomous vehicles and law enforcement officers who must follow this mailing procedure for traffic citations.
