The advocacy ask
Support a Michigan Super Speeder law.
Extreme speeding is not an ordinary traffic mistake. We are asking Michigan lawmakers to create a focused legal response for the most dangerous speeds—one that intervenes before another family is changed forever.
Escalate intervention
Use meaningful license consequences and court review for extreme or repeat behavior.
Use proven technology
Allow court-ordered intelligent speed assistance for qualifying offenders.
What is intelligent speed assistance?
Intelligent speed assistance, or ISA, uses vehicle technology and posted speed-limit information to help prevent a driver from exceeding a set speed. The proposal would apply it through a court order to qualifying offenders—not to every Michigan driver.
