HB 5413 seeks to provide more tools to municipalities in order to combat street takeovers, including:
- Allowing cities and towns to destroy ATVs, dirt bikes, and motorcycles seized and forfeited for violating a municipal ordinance
- Authorizing municipalities to adopt ordinances that penalize street takeovers and impose fines as well as the seizure of vehicles
- Changing and tightening penalties for violating state law on street takeovers, including permanent driver's license revocation for a third violation of the statute
I am glad my bipartisan vote provides additional tools and increased penalties to cities and towns to help deter street takeovers.
The bill now moves to the Senate for its consideration. |
