Kadyns Law drives bus stop arm citations debate in Iowa
A Gazette review shows Kadyns Law has tripled dismissal or plea down rates for stop arm violations in Iowa, with Linn County among the highest. Data depicts 2,660 total citations statewide from 2012 to March, 58 percent convicted as charged, 26 percent dismissed, and 12 percent downgraded to lesser charges. Local prosecutors say enforcement struggles due to driver reports and limited stop arm cameras.
