Dear Motorist, The MassDOT Registry of Motor Vehicles is pleased to provide you with this updated Driver's Manual. The manual is a helpful guide and a reminder that a driver's license is a privilege, and with that comes the responsibilities of understanding and following the laws, and keeping you and other drivers safe on the road. In addition, the RMV is taking important steps since the Governor's declaration of a State of Emergency in March 2020 to complement the work that has been underway for months across state government to keep residents safe and healthy. Certain processes have changed, and continue to change, due to the pandemic, so please check the RMV's website (Mass.Gov/RMV) for the most up to date information. Please read the rules of the road in order to prepare for your road test and a lifetime of safe driving, bicycling, and walking. Some of the important points in the manual include: Hands-Free Electronics While Driving - Massachusetts law prohibits operators of motor vehicles from using any electronic device, including mobile telephones, unless the device is used in hands-free mode. Drivers are not permitted to hold or support any electronic device. Teen drivers are not allowed to use any electronic devices, even in hands-free mode. Fines and other penalties will be imposed for violators of the "hands-free law." See page 68 for more information. Out-of-State Violations - Out-of-state motor vehicle violations impact your record just as if they occurred in Massachusetts. Do not ignore them. If you fail to pay or appear in another jurisdiction for a violation, the RMV will take action against you when learning of these events. See page 48 for more information. REAL ID - Beginning May 3, 2023, you will need a REAL ID, or other acceptable ID such as a valid passport, to fly within the United States. See page 2 for more information. It's important that you stay up to date on changes aimed at increasing safety for all. One way to stay connected is to look for updates to this manual online. We are proud to offer the Driver's Manual as a fully accessible PDF on our website, Mass.Gov/RMV. In addition to English, the manual is currently available online in Spanish. The RMV looks forward to serving you because, together, we can keep our roads safe.
