Bill 17-26 Would Expand Speed Cameras on High-Injury Roads

The Montgomery County Council introduced Bill 17-26 in March 2026, which would allow the county to install speed cameras on high-injury roadways with documented histories of severe and fatal crashes caused by speeding. The bill follows a state enabling law that Councilmember Luedtke advocated for, with Shady Grove Road cited as an example of a Vision Zero high-injury roadway. A public hearing is expected to be scheduled in the coming months.
