House Bill No. 403, introduced by Representative Turner, aims to increase fines for various driving offenses, specifically those related to operating a motor vehicle while impaired and reckless operation of vehicles. The bill proposes additional fines for first, second, third, and fourth or subsequent offenses, which include $25, $50, $100, and $250 respectively for impaired driving, and $5 and $10 for reckless operation offenses. Furthermore, it mandates that all collected fines be forwarded to the state treasurer for deposit into the Louisiana Emergency Response Network Fund, which supports initiatives aimed at reducing trauma and related deaths.

The bill also retains existing provisions regarding the Louisiana Emergency Response Network Fund, ensuring that the additional revenues generated from these fines will be utilized to fund grants and services that align with the network's objectives. The proposed law is set to take effect upon the governor's signature or after the expiration of the time for bills to become law without signature.
