Bill Summary

Trucks that use a special steering system called "stinger steering" would no longer be required to display warning flags on cargo that sticks out beyond the vehicle's normal width or length. Currently, all vehicles carrying loads that extend past their sides or rear must use flags to alert other drivers to the hazard. This change would apply specifically to the trucking industry and companies that operate these specialized vehicles.
