MARVIN MANDEL, Governor 1041
NOTICE OF THE LIMIT.
REVISOR'S NOTE; This section is new language derived
from Art. 89B, §71A.
The last sentence of present §71A, which
provides for a penalty of not more than $100,
is deleted in deference to the uniform penalty
established under Title 27 of this article.
The only other changes are in style.

REASONABLE MOVEMENT OF TRAFFIC.
(B) ESTABLISHMENT OF MINIMUM SPEED LIMITS BY STATE
OR LOCAL AUTHORITIES.

TRAFFIC INVESTIGATION, THE STATE HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION
OR A LOCAL AUTHORITY DETERMINES THAT SLOW SPEEDS ON ANY

ADMINISTRATION OR THE LOCAL AUTHORITY MAY ESTABLISH A
MINIMUM SPEED LIMIT FOR THAT PART OF THE HIGHWAY.

SAFE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE OR OTHERWISE IS IN
COMPLIANCE WITH LAW, A PERSON MAY NOT DRIVE A VEHICLE

Art. 66 1/2, §11-804(a) and (b).
Subsection (b)(3) of this section is new
language added for clarity. This conforms
with similar provisions in §§21-802(d) and
21-803(b) of this subtitle, as well as the
Uniform Vehicle Code counterpart to this
section.
The only other changes are in style.
