AI Summary
This bill eliminates the suspension of a person's driver's license as a penalty for failure to respond to or pay outstanding parking tickets. However, it does require the suspension of a person's motor vehicle registration if the person fails to respond to or pay more than five parking tickets. The bill also allows courts to offer alternatives to full payment of parking fines and penalties, such as payment plans or community service, based on the person's ability to pay.
