700 C.M.R. 7.01 – Scope and Effect

(1) Scope. 700 CMR 7.00 regulates activity, and establishes procedures, requirements, and penalties, with respect to the use of ways under the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation. A provision of 700 CMR 7.00 applies equally to each such way, whether or not the provision refers explicitly to a way, unless the provision states otherwise.
(2) Effect. The headings of 700 CMR 7.00 are provided for ease of reference only and should not be used to construe its provisions. A judicial determination that a provision of 700 CMR 7.00 is unenforceable does not affect another provision of 700 CMR 7.00 unless the provisions are integrally related and cannot be severed.
