A bill for an act relating to the penalty for speeding in excess of twenty miles per hour over the limit.

This bill increases the base fine for speeding more than 20 miles per hour over the limit in Iowa. Under current law, the base fine is $135 plus $5 for each mile per hour over 20 mph; this bill raises the base to $285 while keeping the same $5-per-MPH calculation. It directly affects drivers convicted of speeding violations exceeding 20 mph above posted limits in specific areas like public parks, alleys, and state parks. The change applies to violations under several Iowa code sections governing speed limits.
