AB 2918, as introduced, Holden. Traffic signs: abandonment or dumping of an animal.

Existing law requires the Department of Transportation to place and maintain a sign stating that the abandonment or dumping of an animal is a crime punishable by a fine of up to $1,000 or by confinement in a county jail for up to 6 months, or both, on every major state highway entering the state, as specified.
