Summary

The bill authorizes the cities of Gaithersburg and Rockville to use stop‑sign monitoring systems in school zones, extending a pilot program already used in Prince George’s County, Baltimore City, and Takoma Park. Captured violations generate a civil citation of up to $40, which does not add points to a driver’s record or affect insurance. The law requires local legislative approval, public notice, signage, and a performance report to the Governor and General Assembly by the end of 2028.
