Traffic laws; clarify definition regarding use of automated recording equipment.

SB 2201 clarifies that Mississippi's traffic law definition of "automated recording equipment or system" includes devices operated manually by law enforcement officers, not just fully automated systems. This change would have affected county and municipal governments that use or plan to use traffic enforcement technology to record license plates for violations like speeding or red-light running. The bill amended Section 17-25-19 to explicitly include manually operated devices under the existing ban on local use of such equipment for traffic enforcement. The bill died in committee on March 4, 2025, and never became law.
