AN ACT RELATING TO HIGHWAYS -- RHODE ISLAND TURNPIKE AND BRIDGE AUTHORITY

Summary

The bill changes the Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority law to require toll violators to pay the toll within 14 days, then adds $40 and $35 administrative fees if they miss deadlines. It also defines “toll evader,” allows the authority to seek traffic summons, suspend driver’s licenses for up to six months, and report repeat offenders to the DMV, blocking license and registration renewal. The changes affect any driver, vehicle owner, EZPass holder or renter who uses a tolled project and fails to pay.
