Bill Summary
For legislation relative to toll charges within rental car agreements. Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure.
AI Summary
This bill aims to protect rental car customers by regulating the fees that rental companies can charge for electronic tolls. Specifically, it requires that any fees for electronic tolls must represent the actual cost of the tolls and the rental company's good faith estimate of the costs necessary to recover those tolls. Additionally, the bill prohibits rental companies from charging a rental fee for an electronic tolling transponder. Any violation of these provisions would be considered a violation of the state's consumer protection laws under Chapter 93A.
