HB 5349 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING THE USE OF AUTOMATED TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT SAFETY DEVICES ON LIMITED ACCESS HIGHWAYS.

HB 5349 permits the use of automated cameras (traffic enforcement devices) on limited-access highways to monitor and enforce proper lane usage by drivers. It directly affects drivers traveling on highways like interstates or expressways, as these devices would issue tickets for violations such as improper lane changes. The bill's key mechanism allows automated systems - instead of police officers - to detect and enforce lane discipline, aiming to reduce accidents and congestion. The stated purpose is to improve road safety and traffic flow by addressing lane-related violations through technology.
