IN RE: | SB969 by Seliger (Relating to a length exemption for a vehicle or combination of vehicles used to transport a combine used in farm custom harvesting operations.), As Introduced |
The bill would amend the Transportation Code to provide an exemption from vehicle combination length limitations for a vehicle or combination that is used to transport a combine used in farm custom harvesting operations that is not longer than 75 feet if the vehicle is traveling on a highway that is part of the national system of interstate and defense highways (interstate system) or the federal aid primary highway system or 81 and one-half feet if the vehicle is not travelling on the interstate system of the federal aid primary highway system.
Based on the analysis of the Texas Department of Transportation, it is assumed the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant fiscal impact to the state.
