AI Summary

This bill, known as Troy's Law, amends existing Kentucky law (KRS 189.920) to allow tow trucks, also referred to as wreckers, to be equipped with a flashing, rotating, or oscillating blue light, which can only be used when the wrecker is stationary and actively engaged in removing a vehicle or debris from the highway; however, the bill explicitly prohibits wreckers from using a blue light while towing a vehicle.
