This document (GM 1270) is a notification that Governor Green signed **SB 97 (Act 170)** into law on June 3, 2025. The bill amends Hawaii’s speeding law (HRS §291C-105) to increase penalties for exceeding speed limits by 30+ mph or driving 80+ mph regardless of posted limits. Key changes include higher fines ($500-$1,000 for first offenses), mandatory 30-day license suspensions (with limited work exceptions), and requirements for driver retraining courses or community service. The law directly affects drivers convicted of excessive speeding, with surcharges funding trauma care programs ($25 to neurotrauma fund, up to $100 to trauma system fund).
