Bill > SB411

This bill allows for the use of "triple trailers," which are combinations of one truck tractor and three trailers, on highways, increasing their maximum allowable length to 86 feet and their maximum gross weight to 140,000 pounds, with a reduced limit of 100,000 pounds if one trailer is removed due to safety concerns. Additionally, it permits trailer dealers to use dealer license plates on trailers they own for resale, including for demonstration purposes under loaded conditions, and clarifies that these plates can be used on trailers subject to existing weight and length regulations. The bill also repeals existing laws related to vehicle length, weight, and dealer license plates, and enacts these new provisions.
