House Bill 2093 amends the Transportation Code to revise the amount or disposition of certain fees collected by the Texas Department of Transportation in connection with a permit for an overweight or oversize vehicle. The bill also authorizes the Texas Department of Transportation to impose an administrative penalty, with certain exceptions, and revoke a permit for a violation of the law governing permits for oversize or overweight vehicles and provides for injunctive relief to prevent or abate a violation. The bill's administrative penalty authorization also applies to other violations relating to vehicle size and weight and to false information on a shipper's certificate of weight. The bill provides for an administrative hearing process and injunctive relief in connection with enforcement of motor carrier registration law and repeals certain provisions of this law relating to an administrative penalty and the suspension and revocation of registration.
