Amendment 6

Driving Records

Mr. Tarr moves that the proposed new draft be amended by inserting after section _ the following section:-

"SECTION_. Notwithstanding chapter 81 of the acts of 2022 or any general or special law to the contrary, a specifically named individual’s driving record shall be a public record, provided that disclosure is subject to all applicable statutory and common law exemptions, including redacting or withholding any information relating to the specifically named individual the disclosure of which may constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, including but not limited to an individual’s personal address or social security number under subclause (c) of clause 26 of section 7 of chapter 4 of the General Laws.

For purposes of this section, “driving record” shall mean the record maintained by the registry of motor vehicles that lists all civil and criminal violations incurred by a specifically named individual under section 27 of chapter 90 of the General Laws or as the result of any administrative action taken by the registrar of motor vehicles; provided, that “driving record” shall not include any other information, correspondence, or source materials provided by or relating to an applicant for a Massachusetts license under section 8 of chapter 90 of General Laws or a learners permit under section 8B of said chapter 90, except as otherwise provided by law.
