Bill Summary
Relative to electronic toll payments. Transportation.
AI Summary
This bill amends Section 13 of Chapter 6C of the Massachusetts General Laws to require the transportation department to create an online database with detailed toll-related information. Specifically, the database must allow users to search for toll information using either a vehicle's registration number or the date a toll was assessed. The database must include comprehensive details such as toll usage, amounts due, account balance, late fees, fines, penalties, and payment options. This information must be made available within one business day of a toll being assessed, and instructions for accessing the online database must be displayed on a sign at toll collection points. Additionally, the bill mandates that no invoice for toll collection can be mailed to a vehicle's registered owner until at least 7 days after the initial toll assessment, which provides vehicle owners with a reasonable timeframe to review and address the toll before receiving a formal invoice.
