SB 22-017

Senate Bill 22-017, which has been signed into law in Colorado, changes the rules for vehicle weight limits on roads. Specifically, it states that trucks carrying fluid milk products are not required to divide their loads even if doing so would lower the weight and comply with usual regulations. This affects drivers who transport milk and other dairy liquids. Since the bill is signed, it means the law has been enacted and is now in effect for these specific trucking operations.

Official Summary

Colorado law sets weight limits for vehicles that travel over roads. One of the factors that determines a vehicle's weight limit is whether a load is divisible, which means that the load can be divided up to lower its weight. The act deems that a load of fluid milk products carried by a vehicle is not a divisible load. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
