The bill amends the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure by updating section 12e of chapter XVII, which pertains to specific felonies related to moving violations. It introduces new legal language that specifies the application of this chapter to various felonies enumerated in the Michigan Vehicle Code, including moving violations that result in death or serious injury to individuals in work zones or school bus zones. The bill categorizes these offenses and assigns them specific classifications and maximum penalties, such as categorizing violations causing death to a vulnerable roadway user as a Class C felony.

Additionally, the bill modifies existing language by deleting references to "operator of implement of husbandry" in certain sections and replacing them with "vulnerable roadway user." It also includes provisions for the enactment of the bill, stating that it will take effect 90 days after being enacted into law, and it will only take effect if related Senate or House bills are also enacted. This legislative change aims to enhance the legal framework surrounding traffic-related offenses and improve public safety on Michigan roads.
