Connecticut’s roads must become safer for all users, but the solutions proposed by this bill are too punitive to be the best solution.
House Bill 5429, An Act Concerning Pedestrian Safety, Vision Zero Council, Speed Limits in Municipalities, Fines and Charges for Certain Violations, The Greenways Commemorative Account and Maintenance Work Zone and School Zone Safety Enforcement
Despite these problems, Senate Bill 5429 contains good provisions that we support, such as speed thresholds for enforcement, explicit defenses for people caught by speeding cameras, and data audits. Our concerns regarding privacy, due process, and equity, however, are too great for us to support Senate Bill 5429 at this time.
