Summary

It defines radar, LIDAR and other speed‑timing tools, establishes when their readings can be used to convict drivers, and creates a permitting and training process for municipalities that want to let local officers use radar. The measure also caps fines that towns can keep from radar tickets and adds extra safeguards such as warning signs and a 90‑day warning‑only period.
