Current Bill Summary

SB 145 - Currently, peace officers are required to report certain information concerning each stop of a driver of a motor vehicle for a violation of a traffic law or ordinance, including the racial identity of the person stopped, the violations alleged, the circumstances surrounding any resulting search and whether any arrest was made. This act requires such information for each stop of a motor vehicle, regardless of the purpose of the stop. The act also requires information to be collected on pedestrian stops.

This act is similar to SB 789 (2001).
