The Transportation Committee will hold a hearing on August 29 on legislation that would require the Registrar of Motor Vehicles to make a person’s driving record available to him or her online, including suspensions, outstanding tickets and citations.

“This a commonsense piece of legislation that would give drivers the ability to access their driving record and address any issues before they become a larger issue,” said sponsor Rep. Paul McMurtry (D-Dedham). “This would be a time and cost saving measure for drivers, police and our courts.”
