Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding the failure to use safety restraints as evidence in civil actions to limit an injured party's damages.
This legislation is intended to avoid misinterpretation of section 49-673(8), Idaho Code, by clarifying that the failure to use a seatbelt cannot be used as evidence for the purpose of limiting an injured person’s damages.”

Amends existing law to require drivers to drive in the right-hand lane on multilane highways unless passing and to provide penalties for driving in the left-hand lane of a controlled access highway and impeding the flow of traffic.
This proposed legislation amends Section 49-630, requiring vehicles to be driven on the right-hand side of multilane highways with the exception of certain circumstances. This will promote highway safety and traffic flow. Section 49-655 is also amended to provide for a penalty for impeding traffic.
