If enacted, this bill would amend current traffic statutes by requiring the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) and local authorities to install specific signage on Interstates 8, 10, and 40. The new signs would instruct slower traffic to keep right and read "Left lane for passing only, slow traffic keep right." Additionally, the signs must be 48 inches in height and width, and they must either be accompanied by a smaller sign indicating a "$200 fine" or include this warning directly on the main sign.

The bill also introduces a civil penalty of $200 for individuals who violate the requirement to drive in the right lane when traveling at less than the normal speed of traffic. This provision builds upon existing laws that mandate right-lane usage under certain conditions, thereby enhancing enforcement and clarity regarding lane usage on these specific highways.
