Bill Summary

Vehicle safety inspection; commercial vehicles; exemption. Provides that a commercial vehicle operating in interstate commerce is exempt from the vehicle safety inspection requirement if, in addition to other criteria, such vehicle is inspected in accordance with the federal requirements for annual inspection by complying with federal periodic inspection requirements. Current law requires annual inspection through self-inspection, a third-party inspection, a Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance inspection, or a periodic inspection performed by any state with a program in order for the vehicle to be exempt.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing law to provide an exemption from the Virginia vehicle safety inspection requirement for commercial vehicles operating in interstate commerce, as long as they have been inspected in accordance with the federal requirements for annual inspection. This change removes the previous requirement for such vehicles to undergo self-inspection, third-party inspection, Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance inspection, or periodic inspection by any state program. The bill aims to align the state's inspection requirements with the federal regulations for commercial vehicles engaged in interstate commerce.
