To exempt stinger-steered combinations from a requirement to include warning flags on projecting loads.

This bill would exempt stinger-steered combinations, a type of truck and trailer setup used to haul cars, from a federal rule that requires warning flags on loads that stick out from a vehicle. The exemption applies when these trucks are carrying assembled highway vehicles and would take effect when the bill becomes law. The Secretary of Transportation would have to revise the federal regulation to include this exemption as soon as practicable. The Secretary would make this change without a public notice and comment period or other formal rulemaking process.
