Summary
The bill changes the Michigan vehicle code to define how and when reduced speed limits apply in school zones. It lets superintendents start and end enforcement periods earlier or later than the standard 30‑ to 60‑minute windows and allows up to five enforcement periods per day, including off‑campus lunch or field trips. Violations are treated as civil infractions.
