It's Official.

It's official.  It took five years to get it passed, but the Governor  has now signed the Vulnerable User bill into law. Senate Bill 336 is now Public Act 14-31.

The vulnerable user law requires a fine to be imposed on reckless motor vehicle drivers who cause the death or serious injury of a pedestrian, cyclist, wheelchair user, or other vulnerable users who were using reasonable care.  The fine is capped at $1000.

Congratulations to us.  Just another reminder that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens really can make a difference.
