BOSTON – The Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles has revoked the commercial driver’s licenses of 26 people linked to an alleged State Police bribery scheme .
The RMV said the U.S. Attorney’s Office identified all 26 drivers who did not properly pass the test. They’re accused of bribing troopers with goods and services to get the licenses. Their names have not been made public.
“The 26 individuals identified are no longer permitted to operate a commercial motor vehicle and their licenses have been downgraded to a Class D passenger license. They are unable to obtain a commercial driver’s license in the future, without first confirming eligibility and taking and passing all required commercial permit and skills tests,” the RMV said in a statement.
“The RMV is not aware of any motor vehicle crashes of the identified 26 individuals, after obtaining the commercial license at issue, involving a commercial motor vehicle.”
