Bill Summary · S 2715

Overview: S 2715 is a bill that would limit the amount of fines that can be imposed for violating the E-ZPass system by failing to pay a toll.

Purpose and Intent: The bill aims to establish a cap on the fines that can be levied against individuals who fail to pay tolls through the E-ZPass electronic toll collection system. The legislation seeks to provide relief and fairness for drivers who may inadvertently or unintentionally miss toll payments.

Key Provisions:
- Limits the maximum fine that can be imposed for a single E-ZPass toll violation
- Establishes a tiered fine structure based on the number of violations
- Requires toll agencies to provide clear notice and opportunities to resolve violations before imposing fines

Affected Parties and Impacts: This bill would primarily affect drivers who use the E-ZPass system and may occasionally miss toll payments. The legislation is intended to protect these drivers from excessive fines and ensure a more reasonable penalty structure.

Procedural and Timeline Considerations: S 2715 was introduced in September 2025 and has been referred to the Senate Committee on Transportation. The bill is currently in the early stages of the legislative process, with its next steps being further consideration and potential passage by the committee and the full Senate.
