The bill now heads to Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s desk.

Drivers caught speeding could face fines, depending on the number of offenses.

Under the bill, speed cameras would be activated when drivers exceed the posted speed limit by at least 10 miles per hour in zones where workers are present. For first-time offenders, the system would issue a warning. A second offense would result in a $150 fine, and a third offense within a three-year period would incur a $300 fine.
