Bill > HR5177

This bill amends title 49 of the United States Code to require states to enforce specific safety requirements for commercial motor vehicle drivers at weigh stations. Specifically, the bill mandates that when a commercial motor vehicle enters a weigh station, state authorities must enforce sections 3 and 4 of Executive Order 14286, which was signed on April 28, 2025, and relates to "Enforcing Commonsense Rules of the Road for America's Truck Drivers." The bill adds a new section (31152) to existing transportation law that overrides any conflicting provisions and requires the Secretary of Transportation to ensure state compliance with these enforcement requirements. While the specific details of sections 3 and 4 of the executive order are not provided in the bill text, the legislation appears aimed at standardizing and strengthening safety enforcement for commercial truck drivers at weigh stations across the United States.
