House Bill No. by Representative McMakin proposes the creation of a new crime known as "felony speeding," which is defined as operating a motor vehicle at a speed exceeding the posted limit by at least thirty miles per hour. The bill enacts R.S. 14:99.3, establishing this offense under Louisiana law.

The legislation outlines penalties for those convicted of felony speeding, which include a fine of no less than one thousand dollars, imprisonment for a minimum of six months with or without hard labor, or both. This new legal framework aims to enhance public safety by addressing excessive speeding on roadways.
