Washington State Proposes Accident Risk Zones
Update: 2025-12-29
Description
Representative Mark Klicker introduces House Bill 2174 in Washington state, aiming to create accident risk zones on high-crash roads. The bill, if approved, would allow local governments and the state DOT to mark danger spots, study traffic issues, and implement fixes like adjusting speed limits or increasing patrols. Drivers would face double fines in these zones with clear warning signs. The proposal comes after a fatal crash on Highway 12, one of Washingtons deadliest stretches, prompting residents to push for change. Klicker secured $44 million for safety upgrades and the highway widening project is set to begin in spring 2027. Checkout Solipillow.com
