Bill > H3004

This bill proposes to add a new section to Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 90, concerning violations by holders of junior operator's licenses. Specifically, it mandates that any junior operator convicted of possessing alcohol, marijuana, or any other illegal controlled substance will have their license revoked, be required to attend a substance abuse program for at least three months, and pay a fine of no less than $1,000 to the state's general fund. Furthermore, individuals in this situation will not be eligible to obtain any driver's license from the Commonwealth until they have completed both the substance abuse program and paid the fine. The Registrar of the Registry of Motor Vehicles will be responsible for creating the necessary rules and regulations to implement these provisions.
