The bill, House No. 3710, proposes to enhance driver education courses in Massachusetts by including a module focused on the science of marijuana impairment effects. This initiative aims to educate new drivers about the potential risks and consequences associated with driving under the influence of marijuana, thereby promoting safer driving practices.

The committee on Transportation has been tasked with investigating and studying the proposed legislation. They are required to report their findings and any recommendations, along with necessary legislative drafts, to the General Court by December 31, 2026. This process indicates a commitment to thorough examination and consideration of the implications of integrating such educational content into driver training programs.
