An Act relative to roadway safety

This bill requires drivers in Massachusetts to remove ice or snow from their vehicles - including the hood, trunk, and roof - within 24 hours after snow or ice stops falling. It directly affects all drivers, including commercial vehicle operators, but includes exceptions for those en route to clear snow or if compliance would violate safety laws. Police may stop vehicles if ice/snow poses an immediate threat to people or property. Violations carry standard traffic fines under existing Chapter 85, Section 36 penalties. The law focuses on preventing hazards from ice/snow accumulation during winter weather.
