Bill > S2113

This bill establishes regulations for peer-to-peer car sharing programs in Massachusetts. It defines "personal vehicle sharing program" as a business that facilitates the sharing of private passenger vehicles for non-commercial use. The bill requires these programs to provide vehicle registration information to the Department of Public Utilities and the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, and to provide clear cost estimates to consumers. The programs must also affix a symbol approved by the Department of Public Utilities to each shared vehicle. The Department of Public Utilities is tasked with ensuring the safety and inspection of vehicles in these programs, and can issue monetary penalties or take other action against programs that violate the regulations. The bill also provides a process for administrative appeals and judicial review of the Department's actions.
