Summary

The bill revises Michigan’s vehicle code to more precisely define work zones and to double fines for moving violations in work zones, emergency scenes, school zones, and school‑bus zones. It also creates misdemeanor and felony offenses for violations that cause injury or death when the driver has earned three or more points. The goal is to increase protection for road workers, students, and other vulnerable road users.
