Bill > S2214

This bill amends the law regarding handicapped plates and placards in Massachusetts. It allows the registrar to waive the requirement for state agencies to display their name on agency vehicles with handicapped plates. It also imposes a $50 fine for obstructing the placard number or expiration date, and allows the registrar to require additional documentation to verify information on placard applications. The bill increases the penalty for using a deceased person's placard and extends the period for renewing a lost or stolen placard. It also authorizes the registrar to investigate and revoke placards obtained through false statements, with fines up to $1,000 for such offenses. Finally, the bill adds references to special parking identification placards in the laws governing their use and enforcement.
