S 2254 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act to protect motorists from excessive EZ-Pass fees and fines

This bill requires the Massachusetts Department of Transportation to regularly review EZ-Pass accounts that have accumulated over $100 in unpaid toll fees and fines. To address these balances, the department must contact account holders at least once a month using multiple methods, such as checking address registries, sending emails, and making phone calls. The legislation aims to ensure drivers receive timely notifications about their account status and are informed of the steps needed to resolve their outstanding debts.
