Md Traffic Safety Plan Parked Again
ANNAPOLIS The traffic safety agenda that arrived with the Maryland General Assembly last January was parked in the legislative garage for another year. It will undergo a thorough checkup by the Legislative Council between sessions and return next February for another run. Backers seek better results, noting proposals for a point system, compulsory vehicle inspection, reflectorized plates, driver education, tougher homicide laws, and chemical tests for drunk driving were mostly stalled or revised. The major bid for reregistration of Marshland drivers would cost motorists and was cut to a one time action. The point system and broader reforms were opposed by the Department of Motor Vehicles, which said it could not handle such changes administratively.
