The bill amends Florida Statutes to revise the definition of "vehicle" and establish new regulations regarding speed limits for vehicles and vessels. Specifically, it updates the definition of "vehicle" in section 316.003 to include devices that transport persons or property on a street or highway, while excluding personal delivery devices and mobile carriers. Additionally, it amends section 316.183 to state that no person may drive a vehicle on a street or highway at a speed greater than what is reasonable and prudent, considering existing conditions and hazards.

Furthermore, the bill introduces section 316.88, which prohibits the operation of a motor vehicle, vessel, or other conveyance at a speed that creates an excessive wake on flooded or inundated streets or highways. This new regulation aims to enhance safety and protect the integrity of roadways during adverse conditions. The act is set to take effect upon becoming law.
