A measure being considered Monday by the state Senate's Law and Public Safety Committee would increase fines for violators from $100 to $200 for the first offense.
A second offense would garner a $400 fine, while a third violation would mean a $600 fine.
Violators also could have their driver's license suspended for 90 days for the third and subsequent violations. They also would receive three points on their license.
A similar measure was approved by the full Senate in 2010.
