AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Chapter 90 of the Massachusetts General Laws by adding a new section that prohibits the operation of commercial motor vehicles on public roads with any accumulation of snow or ice on the roof of the vehicle. The owner and operator of the vehicle are both responsible for ensuring the removal of accumulated snow and ice before operating the vehicle on a public road. Violations of this provision would result in a fine of at least $500 for offenses not causing injury or damage, and at least $10,000 for offenses resulting in personal injury or property damage.
