An Act amending Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in traffic-control devices, further providing for obedience to traffic-control devices.
HB 2230 amends Pennsylvania's traffic laws to hold GPS navigation providers liable if their systems fail to warn commercial drivers about active traffic-control devices (like stop signs or signals), causing violations. Specifically, if a commercial driver violates traffic rules due to a GPS system not explicitly noting a traffic device, the GPS provider faces a $2,000 civil penalty per violation. This applies to companies offering GPS navigation software, satellite apps, or internet-based mapping services. The law targets providers' responsibility to alert drivers to traffic-control devices, not the drivers' liability.
