Bill Summary
Relative to fines for certain illegal pedestrian movement. The Judiciary.
AI Summary
This bill amends the existing law to increase the maximum fine for pedestrians violating rules regulating the use of ways from $1 to $50. The bill also allows local traffic and parking commissions, city councils, and boards of selectmen to set the fine amount within this $50 limit without requiring approval from the state Department of Transportation or publication in a newspaper. Additionally, the bill clarifies that payment of the fine operates as a final disposition of the case, and that the proceedings are not deemed criminal.
