Highways: bridges; tolling enforcement program; provide for. Amends title & sec. 219 of 1949 PA 300 (MCL 257.219) & adds secs. 820a & 820b.

HB 5733 establishes a new tolling enforcement program that allows the Michigan Secretary of State to work with operators of toll bridges and tunnels to collect unpaid tolls. Under this program, the Secretary of State will negotiate agreements to identify vehicle owners who have failed to pay tolls and will send them official notices. The bill also creates a formal process for these individuals to dispute unpaid toll claims and sets strict rules for how data is shared and used between the state and toll operators. Additionally, the legislation requires the Secretary of State to refuse vehicle registration or title transfers if there is an outstanding unpaid toll associated with the vehicle.
