To expand the <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2003-HB-5173">law</a> establishing strict penalties for committing a traffic violation that injures or kills a worker in a highway work zone, so the penalties apply whether the victim is a worker or some other person.
Referred to the Committee on Transportation
Reported without amendment
With the recommendation that the substitute (H-1) be adopted and that the bill then pass.
Substitute offered
To replace the previous version of the bill with one that would also remove a provision that requires, whenever practical, that signs be placed in a construction work zone notifying drivers of the increased fines and penalties that exist for the protection and safety of construction workers. This would not affect the signs that indicate when a work zone begins and ends.
