Resolve, To Allow The Maine Turnpike Authority To Conduct A Pilot Program To Implement Automated Speed Control Systems In Highway Work Zones

Summary

The resolve authorizes the Maine Turnpike Authority, together with the Department of Transportation and the Department of Public Safety, to install and operate speed‑control systems that photograph license plates of vehicles traveling 11 mph or more over the posted work‑zone speed limit. The pilot can operate at up to three locations between Jan. 1 2026 and Dec. 31 2028, with required signage, trained operators, and privacy safeguards. Drivers who are caught receive a written warning for a first offense and a civil penalty for subsequent offenses, but no points on their driving record.
