Motor Vehicles – Speed Monitoring Systems – Safety Corridors (Vulnerable Road User Protection Act of 2026)
Referred Judicial Proceedings (Senate)
Summary
The bill lets Maryland’s highway agency set up speed‑monitoring cameras in areas where pedestrians and cyclists are most at risk. Local governments can also use the cameras if they follow a public‑hearing process and post proper signs. Fines collected go first to cover the program’s costs and then to the state’s transportation safety fund.
