Introduced Text

South Carolina Speed Safety Act of 2025 establishes speed-safety systems in school and construction zones.

The South Carolina Speed Safety Act of 2025 amends the South Carolina Code to introduce speed-safety systems in school and construction zones. These systems, which use scanning lidar sensors, record images of vehicles traveling over the speed limit. The act defines terms such as "agency," "owner," "recorded image," "speed-safety system," and "speed-safety system operator." It mandates that agencies using these systems must submit annual reports analyzing public safety and social and racial equity impacts.
