AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR AND OTHER VEHICLES -- AGGRESSIVE DRIVING

SB 556 amends the state's definition of "aggressive driving" by adding five new driving violations to the existing list. Under current law, aggressive driving is defined as committing two or more specific violations while operating a motor vehicle. This bill expands that list to include offenses such as failing to obey police officers, specific rules for overtaking on the left, ensuring clearance while overtaking, prohibitions on overtaking in certain places, and rules for driving on laned roadways. This change directly affects motorists by broadening the range of actions that can lead to an aggressive driving charge.
