AI Summary

This bill exempts the registered owner of a vehicle from liability for certain electronic or video tolls if they provide the Maryland Transportation Authority (or its agent) with documentation by the due date on the toll notice, proving they were undergoing cancer treatment at the time of the toll transaction. This exemption applies when the vehicle was operated by the registered owner or someone transporting them, and the documentation must be from a licensed healthcare provider and substantiate that the owner was between scheduled cancer treatments as part of an ongoing course of treatment. This change aims to provide financial relief to individuals actively receiving cancer care, recognizing the burden of medical expenses.
