Bill > H3799

This bill modifies Massachusetts vehicle inspection requirements by amending Chapter 90, Section 7A of the General Laws to provide a special inspection timeline for new vehicles. Specifically, for motor vehicles that are one model year old or less, the registry of motor vehicles (registrar) will now mandate an initial maintenance inspection that remains valid for two years, after which the vehicle can receive two subsequent maintenance inspections, each valid for an additional two-year period. This change means that new vehicles will have a more extended period between required inspections, potentially reducing the administrative burden and cost for new vehicle owners while still maintaining regular safety and maintenance checks.
