This Maryland bill (Senate Bill 173/House Bill 249) would let the state's Motor Vehicle Admin enter agreements with other areas (like D.C. or other states) to enforce speed/traffic camera tickets mutually. If you ignore a ticket from another jurisdiction, they could block your vehicle registration renewal in Maryland, and vice versa. Aimed at collecting on unpaid fines, especially from out-of-state drivers. Hearing soon; effective Oct 2026 if passed.
