Relative to leaving the scene of a motor vehicle accident. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 24 of Chapter 90 of the General Laws in Massachusetts. It removes the word "register" and replaces it with "registration" in subsection 2(a). Additionally, it allows police officers to arrest, without a warrant, any operator they have probable cause to believe has committed the violation of leaving the scene of a motor vehicle crash. The bill also expands the list of offenses for which an officer can arrest someone without a warrant, including operating a vehicle after their license has been suspended or revoked, operating under the influence, and causing serious bodily injury or death through reckless or negligent operation.
