AI Summary
This bill amends Section 22F of Chapter 90 of the Massachusetts General Laws to make changes to the state's "habitual offender" law for motor vehicle operators. Specifically, it increases the number of traffic violations required to be deemed a "habitual offender" from four to five, and it removes the ability to appeal the Registrar of Motor Vehicles' orders related to habitual offender designations. The bill also establishes new categories of "level 2" and "level 3" habitual offenders, with corresponding mandatory license revocation periods and requirements for completing a driver improvement course and passing a competency exam before being eligible for license reinstatement. The Registrar is also granted additional authority to revoke licenses or rights to operate for level 3 habitual offenders who commit further automobile law violations.
