The proposed bill, known as the "Talyn Bain Act," mandates the Oklahoma Department of Transportation to establish school zones on certain state highways upon request from local jurisdictions. Specifically, school zones with a maximum speed limit of forty-five miles per hour must be created on highways that either run adjacent to school property, have a high posted speed limit without adequate access, or are within a specified distance from school property. The bill also stipulates that local jurisdictions will be responsible for the maintenance and operational costs of school zone signage and equipment once the construction is completed.

Additionally, the bill outlines the enforcement of reduced speed limits during designated school drop-off and pick-up times, as indicated by flashing beacons on signage. The Department of Transportation is authorized to consult with local school districts and municipalities before establishing these zones. Violations of the speed limit in these school zones will be enforced similarly to existing school zone speeding violations under Oklahoma law. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2026.
