Relative to the collection of all-electronic tolling data. Transportation.

AI Summary

This bill establishes privacy protections for all-electronic tolling data collected by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT). It defines key terms like "ALPR data" (data from automated license plate reader systems) and "preservation request" (written notice from law enforcement to retain ALPR data for a specific investigation). The bill limits MassDOT's use of ALPR data, allowing access only for toll collection, system maintenance, emergency situations, or to comply with a search warrant, production order, or preservation request. The bill also requires MassDOT to permanently delete ALPR data within 120 days, unless it is needed for one of the permitted purposes.
