AN ACT
To amend chapter 304, RSMo, by adding thereto one new section relating to automated photo red light enforcement systems, with a penalty provision.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the state of Missouri, as follows:
Section A. Chapter 304, RSMo, is amended by adding thereto one new section, to be known as section 304.825, to read as follows:
304.825. Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 304.271, 304.281, 304.367, and 304.570, any person who commits a steady red light violation that is detected and enforced through an automated photo red light enforcement system is guilty of an infraction. A penalty imposed by an agency for a violation detected pursuant to a system shall not be deemed a moving violation and shall not be made part of the operation record of the person upon whom such liability is imposed, nor shall such imposition of a penalty be subject to merit rating for insurance purposes and no surcharge points shall be imposed in the provision of motor vehicle insurance coverage. In no case shall points be assessed against any person under section 302.302, RSMo, for a violation detected by an automated photo red light enforcement system.
