The bill titled "An Act relative to reporting to the registrar of motor vehicles" proposes an amendment to Section 27 of chapter 90 of the General Laws of Massachusetts. The key change involves the requirement for courts to report any conviction of assault and battery involving a motor vehicle to the registrar of motor vehicles. This addition aims to enhance the tracking and accountability of individuals convicted of such offenses, ensuring that the registrar is informed of relevant convictions that may impact driving privileges.

The specific legal language being inserted into the current law is: "provided, however, that courts shall report any conviction of assault and battery involving a motor vehicle to the registrar." This amendment reflects a proactive approach to public safety and the regulation of motor vehicle operation by ensuring that serious offenses are duly reported and considered in the context of motor vehicle regulations.
