This bill proposes amendments to section 28-626 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, specifically updating the language regarding traffic control ordinances. The current law states that the provisions of this chapter and related chapters are applicable uniformly throughout the state and allows political subdivisions to adopt ordinances or regulations concerning traffic control, including civil penalties for violations. The bill modifies this by removing the phrase "The provisions of" and clarifying that these regulations apply "of this state."

Additionally, the bill introduces a new provision that prohibits political subdivisions from enacting or enforcing ordinances that ban "cruising," defined as the repetitive driving of a motor vehicle past the same location without a specific destination within a designated time frame. This insertion aims to protect the practice of cruising from local regulations that may restrict it.
