1001 amends the Transportation Code to create an alternative vehicle inspection
procedure for a motor vehicle or trailer that is part of a commercial fleet and
registered or in the process of being registered in Texas. The bill increases
the maximum gross weight of a trailer, semitrailer, pole trailer, or mobile
home that is exempt from compulsory inspection from 4,500 to 7,500 pounds,
subjects such a vehicle to a fee at the time of registration, and provides for
the disposition of the fee.</span></p>
