Bill Summary

Relative to the head injury treatment services trust fund. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill amends various sections of the Massachusetts General Laws to increase the amount of fines and assessments related to operating a motor vehicle under the influence of intoxicating substances, and directs a significant portion of those funds (75% or $50 per fine) to be deposited into the Head Injury Treatment Services Trust Fund. The bill also expands the sources of revenue for the trust fund by adding language referencing Section 13B of Chapter 90, which relates to fines for leaving the scene of an accident involving personal injury. The purpose of these changes is to provide additional funding for treatment services for those who have suffered head injuries.
