AI Summary
This bill, known as the Alabama Squat Truck Law, prohibits the operation of passenger cars or trucks on Alabama highways if the height of the front fender is raised more than 4 inches greater than the height of the rear fender. Violators will face fines ranging from $50 for a first offense to $250 for a third or subsequent offense, and the conviction will be recorded as a 2-point violation on the driver's record. The bill defines the method for measuring fender height and excludes it from certain constitutional requirements because it creates a new crime. The law will become effective on October 1, 2024.
