This bill enacts new provisions under R.S. 32:232(3) regarding penalties for traffic-control signal violations, specifically focusing on red light infractions. It introduces three new subsections (e), (f), and (g) that establish increased penalties based on the severity of the violation. If a red light violation results in injury to another person, the offender faces a fine ranging from $200 to $500 and may have their driver's license suspended for 90 days. For serious bodily injury, the fines increase to between $500 and $1,000, with potential imprisonment for up to six months and a 180-day license suspension.

In cases where a red light violation leads to the death of another person, the penalties are even more severe, imposing fines between $1,000 and $5,000, imprisonment for up to one year, and a possible driver's license suspension for up to 365 days. These changes aim to enhance road safety by holding offenders accountable for their actions at traffic signals, particularly in situations that result in harm to others.
