A compromise merging rival proposals on school zone cameras and speed guardrails sets the stage for Va. Gov. Youngkin’s approval.
—
Virginia lawmakers delivered a last-minute compromise on a contentious safety bill — ushering in high-tech school zone cameras and speed camera guardrails — just as the General Assembly wrapped up its session. However, the measure’s future now rests with Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s pending approval.
Senate Bill 1233, sponsored by Sen. Angelia Williams Graves, D-Norfolk, passed in the Democratic-controlled Senate on a 25-15 vote and in the House by 54-40. A similar House measure by Del. Holly Seibold, D-Fairfax, failed to advance in the Senate Transportation Committee, but some of the language made it into Williams Graves’ proposal.
