SB 392 - Jeff Clemens

“This bill takes myth and politics and replaces it with facts and engineering."

Jeff Clemens, FL State Senator

Talking about his bill SB 392 that passed on a 15-4 vote. It directs the state Department of Transportation to determine the safe minimum and maximum speed limits on all divided highways that have at least four lanes.

Look to July 1 for the higher speed limit to go into effect.  Sen. Clemens will be able to make it to Tallahassee that much faster.
