State highways: Department of Transportation: German autobahn report.

Abstract

Existing law vests the Department of Transportation with full possession and control of the state highway system. Existing law prohibits a person from driving a vehicle upon a highway with a speed limit established pursuant to specified provisions at a speed greater than that speed limit. Existing law prohibits a person from driving a vehicle upon a state highway at a speed greater than 65 miles per hour. This bill would require the department, on or before January 1, 2021, to submit a report that includes policy recommendations to the Legislature and the California Transportation Commission on any potential advantages of the German autobahn system compared to California's state highway system and on the feasibility of implementing those potential advantages in California, as specified.
