AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend Section 18 of Chapter 90 of the General Laws, which deals with motor vehicle regulations. Specifically, it seeks to insert a new sentence after the word "control" in line 15 of the existing law. This insertion would allow for "special regulations as to the speed of motor vehicles" to be established, implying that the current general rules regarding speed limits might be modified or supplemented by these special regulations. The context provided by the government summary indicates that this bill is intended to regulate the posting of speed limits on lands, roadways, and parkways managed by the Metropolitan District Commission and the Department of Environmental Management, suggesting these special regulations would apply to areas under their jurisdiction.
