H 3739 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act allowing for partial payment of fines relating to driver’s license suspension or revocation

This bill (HD 2718) allows individuals with suspended or revoked driver's licenses due to unpaid fees to set up monthly payment plans with the state registrar. It requires a minimum $25 monthly payment and permits conditional license reinstatement after the first payment is received, provided the person meets other eligibility requirements. The conditional license is revoked if a payment is over 30 days late or if the person violates certain traffic laws. Full license reinstatement occurs once all fees are paid in full. The bill directly affects drivers who owe fees related to license suspensions.
