Vehicles: pickup trucks.

Existing law defines "commercial vehicle" for purposes of the Vehicle Code, as a motor vehicle of a type required to be registered under that code that is used or maintained for the transportation of persons for hire, compensation, or profit or designed, used, or maintained primarily for the transportation of property. Existing law subjects pickup trucks to commercial vehicle weight fees. This bill would exclude from that definition a pickup truck that is not used for the transportation of property for hire, compensation, or profit. The bill would exempt those excluded pickup trucks from commercial vehicle weight fees.
