Vehicles: weight limits.

Existing law generally prohibits the total gross weight in pounds imposed on the highway by a group of 2 or more consecutive axles from exceeding a specified weight, depending on the distance in feet between the extremes of a group of 2 or more consecutive axles, and the number of axles. This bill would, notwithstanding any other law, exclude from the total gross weight any weight added to a ready mix concrete truck resulting from compliance with a regulation of the State Air Resources Board, up to an amount not to exceed 1,000 pounds of additional gross vehicle weight.
