Bill Intelligence

The bill aims to address roadside and work zone safety. It proposes amending existing laws to include occupants of disabled vehicles in safety programs, track injury data, and increase public awareness of 'move over' laws. It also establishes two working groups to gather data, develop strategies, and improve safety measures. Additionally, it mandates an annual report on the effectiveness of work zone safety funds. These efforts involve multiple agencies, industry representatives, and local experts to prevent fatalities and injuries in roadside and work zone accidents.
