Newspaper Page Text2A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • MONDAY, JULY 10, 2017 New laws hit the books as Legislature adjourns Facebooking while driving will be illegal In your vehicle • For everyone who wishes they could pump their own gas in Oregon, HB 2482 allows self-service fueling at gas sta- tions 24 hours a day in coun- ties with a population of less than 40,000 east of Mult- nomah County starting in Jan- uary . Stations with a retail space, such as a mini-mart, must still provide an employee able to dispense fuel between the hours of 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. • If you spot a toddler or pet locked in a danger- ously hot car with no parent in sight, HB 2732 allows you to break into a car to remove them if the person acts in good faith believing that the child or animal is in immedi- ate danger. The person must have ﬁ rst conﬁ rmed that the doors were all locked, pro- Thomas L. ‘ Les’ Galloway Longview, Wash. Oct. 21, 1925 — June 21, 2017 including women, people of color, immigrants, people with disabilities and the LG BTQ community — during social studies after HB 2845, which directs the Department of Edu- cation to write statewide eth- nic studies standards for K-12 social studies curriculum, with the help of a diverse advisory group. The department will also develop more ﬁ nancial literacy curriculum thanks to the passage of HB 2229. • Juniors and seniors in high school will be able to register to vote thanks to SB 802, which lowered the voter registration age to 16 starting in January. The actual voting age, however, remains at 18. • If you forget to pay your child’s lunch bill, don’t worry about “lunch shaming.” House Bill 3454 bans schools from making students do extra chores, throwing away their lunch or otherwise publicly identifying them as having an overdue balance on their lunch accounts. Instead, schools are directed to work directly with parents on settling the bill. • Worried about police interviewing your child while they are at school? House Bill 3242 requires law enforce- ment to record interviews with minors when investigat- ing a felony. • School volunteers with direct and unsupervised con- tact with students will also have to undergo a background check ﬁ rst thanks to HB 2992. By JADE McDOWELL EO Media Group Another legislative session is in the books, and with it comes hundreds of new laws. Many of the more than 850 bills passed won’t have a noticeable impact on the average citizen’s day -to -day life, but others could result in a stranger smashing in your car window or ﬁ nally having to learn how to pump your own gas. Starting in October , it could also result in a $2,000 ﬁ ne for checking sports scores on your phone while driving. Previously it was only illegal to text and drive, but House Bill 2597 outlaws all hands-on use of a mobile electronic device while driv- ing, including, but not limited to, posting on social media, taking photos, inputting a destination on GPS or scroll- ing through a playlist on your phone. The maximum ﬁ ne for violations is $2,000, and third-time offenders will be charged with a misdemeanor instead of a trafﬁ c violation. H ere is a small sampling of other new rules that might affect you: OBITUARIES E.J. Harris/EO Media Group House Bill 2746, passed in April, increased the de- posit on cans and bottles from 5 cents to 10 cents. ceeded to do the least amount of damage needed and called law enforcement as soon as “reasonably practical.” The bill took effect immediately upon passage. • It’s not just police cars you’ll be required to move over for starting in January . Senate Bill 34 requires driv- ers on roads with more than one lane in the same direction to move to a lane non adjacent to any vehicle pulled over with hazard lights ﬂ ashing, ﬂ ares set out or other indi- cations of distress. If there is only one lane, passing drivers must slow down by at least 5 mph instead. • If you get into a crash, SB 35, effective immedi- ately, increases the threshold for reporting motor -vehicle crashes to law enforcement from $1,500 to $2,500 worth of damage. The Legislature also passed HB 2403, requir- ing drivers to exchange insur- ance information after all crashes. If leaving a note for a vehicle owner who is not present, the note must include the insurance carrier and pol- icy number. • Anyone who fancies themselves an amateur detec- tive will have to forgo the old “Tracking device on the car” trick. Senate Bill 483 makes it illegal to attach a GPS device to a person’s vehicle without their knowledge. The misde- meanor offense becomes a felony if the perpetrator has previously been convicted of stalking or has a restraining order against them. It does not apply to law enforcement.
