Vehicles: active intelligent speed assist devices.
- Requires speed-monitoring devices for drivers convicted of reckless driving or excessive speeding offenses.
- Mandates device installation periods ranging from 6 months to 4 years based on prior convictions.
- Creates an income-based payment system where low-income offenders pay as little as 10% of device costs.
- Requires maintenance checks every 60 days and monitors tampering attempts through DMV oversight.
Assembly Member Gipson's proposal would require drivers convicted of excessive speed, reckless driving, or speed exhibition offenses to install active intelligent speed assist (ISA) devices on their vehicles, mirroring existing requirements for ignition interlock devices in DUI cases.
The installation requirements follow a graduated scale based on prior convictions. First-time offenders may face discretionary installation for up to six months, while those with multiple convictions face mandatory periods ranging from 12 to 48 months. The Department of Motor Vehicles would oversee the program, tracking compliance through installation verification forms and regular device monitoring. Convicted drivers must have their ISA devices serviced every 60 days for recalibration.
The bill establishes an income-based fee structure for device costs, with payments ranging from 10% to 100% of program expenses based on the convicted person's income relative to federal poverty levels. ISA manufacturers must cover remaining costs not assigned to drivers. The requirements would apply only to qualifying offenses committed after January 1, 2026. Local agencies would not receive state reimbursement for implementation costs, as the measure creates new penalties rather than modifying existing ones.
