A bill in the South Carolina legislature would raise some speeding fines for truckers.

The Owner Operator Independent Drivers Assn. reports that HB3146, introduced by Rep. Joel Lourie, proposes fines ranging from $20 up to $300, depending on the severity of the violation. These fines would be in effect only where the posted speed limits are 55 mph or greater.
Another bill (HB3102), introduced by Rep. J. Gary Simrill, would prohibit law enforcement officers from enticing the driver of another vehicle to speed and then citing the driver for the violation.
