Bill > H3089

This bill proposes to amend Section 18 of Chapter 90 of the General Laws, which deals with establishing speed limits. Specifically, it seeks to remove the requirement that the Department of Transportation (referred to as "the department") and the Registrar of Motor Vehicles (referred to as "the registrar") must jointly certify in writing that a speed regulation is consistent with the public interest before it can be implemented on certain local roads. This change would streamline the process of establishing speed limits on these roads by removing a specific certification step.
