REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 88B, §§ 3 and 13.

In subsection (a)(2)(iii) of this section, the specific references to "counties"
and "municipal corporations" are substituted for the former general
reference to "local subdivisions" for clarity and consistency throughout this
article. Consequently, in subsection (a)(2)(iv) of this section, the reference
to the laws and ordinances "of the State, counties, and municipal
corporations" is added to clarify the former reference to "such" laws and
ordinances.

As to subsection (b)(1)(v) of this section, see generally Title 24 of the
Transportation Article.

In subsection (b)(2) of this section, the former phrase "from time to time" is
deleted as implicit.

Defined terms: "County" § 1-101
"Department" § 2-101
"Law enforcement agency" § 2-101
