The Speed & Robot Bill
Florida bundles speed limits and robot car protections together
Transportation
Mixed: some good, some bad ·
This giant bill changes many traffic rules, raises some speed limits, and creates special crimes for damaging driverless cars.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
This bill is a giant grab bag of rule changes. Some parts make life easier, like moving car registration entirely online so you do not need a license plate sticker. But other parts look like favors for big companies. It lets billboard owners build taller signs and creates special criminal charges just for messing with corporate delivery drones and driverless cars. Raising speed limits and cutting back on who can use special transit vans could also hurt everyday people.
