SB 1099 Pennsylvania Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act amending Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in general provisions relating to operation of vehicles, further providing for obedience to authorized persons directing traffic and providing for drivers in organized motorcycle processions; and, in rules of the road in general, further providing for following too closely.

SB 1099 amends Pennsylvania's vehicle code to clarify that drivers must obey traffic directions given by authorized personnel, such as police officers or flaggers. It specifically adds rules for organized motorcycle processions, requiring riders to follow designated safety protocols while traveling in groups. The bill also updates the "following too closely" rule to emphasize maintaining a safe distance between vehicles, reducing tailgating risks. These changes directly affect all drivers operating vehicles on Pennsylvania roads, particularly those participating in motorcycle events.
