Oklahoma Bills Propose Changes Related to Truck Enforcement

Apr 14, 2021 at 03:49 PM CST

Two bills intended to streamline enforcement associated with commercial motor vehicles are making their way through the Oklahoma State Legislature. One bill, Senate Bill 691, outlines a system of fines for people whose vehicles are in excess of weight limitations. State Sen. Mark Allen (R-Spiro), who authored both bills, explained the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety and the Oklahoma Corporation Commission enforce size and weight restrictions on vehicles in the state. The Oklahoma Corporation Commission regulates the fuel, oil, transportation and utilities industries.
