Rule 24 Effective Date

(A) Original rules The Ohio Traffic Rules originally took effect on January 1, 1975, pursuant to R.C. 2935.17 and R.C. 2937.46. Some rules have been amended in succeeding years in accord with the aforementioned statutes.

(B) Use of tickets conforming to prior rules Paper tickets conforming to prior rules may be used after the effective date of amendments to such rules to exhaust inventories, but issuing authorities must order new supplies of tickets which fully comply with effective amendments. Electronic tickets shall be updated as promptly as possible to comply with effective amendments.

(C) Effective date of amendments Amendments to these rules and the Uniform Traffic Ticket adopted by the Supreme Court shall take effect following adoption. They shall govern all proceedings in actions brought after they take effect and also all further proceedings in actions then pending, except to the extent that their application in a particular action pending when the amendments take effect would not be feasible or would work injustice, in which event the former procedure applies.
