Highways: bridges; fees for unpaid tolls; limit the amount that may be charged for certain toll bridges. Amends title of 1949 PA 300 (MCL 257.1 - 257.923) & adds sec. 818a.

HB 5953 limits the late fees or penalties that privately owned toll bridge operators can charge for unpaid tolls to no more than five times the original toll amount. This restriction applies only to privately owned bridges and does not affect international crossings or publicly owned bridges. The bill amends the Michigan Vehicle Code to establish this cap, ensuring that fees for overdue tolls remain proportional to the initial cost.
