Summary

Existing law requires the Department of the California Highway Patrol to adopt reasonable rules and regulations that, in the judgment of the department, are designed to promote the safe operation of specified commercial vehicles, regarding, among other things, inspection and maintenance of vehicles and to adopt procedures for the enforcement of these rules and regulations. This bill would, until January 1, 2012, establish the Strategic Area Freeway Enforcement Task Force in the Business, Transportation and Housing Agency to develop a work program that will optimize the effectiveness and efficiencies of the commercial vehicle enforcement network in southeast Los Angeles County through a multiagency collaborative effort focused on addressing ongoing commercial vehicle enforcement issues and to recognize the potential benefits from specified technologies. The bill would require the task force to report annually, on or before December 31 of each year, to the Governor, the Business, Transportation and Housing Agency, and the Assembly Committee on Transportation and the Senate Committee on Transportation and Housing on the progress made towards adoption of the recommendations developed to improve commercial vehicle enforcement in southeast Los Angeles County pursuant to a specified list of 6 objectives, that include, among other things, review of vehicle dimension-in-motion (VDIM) and automated driver identification (ADI) devices as a legal enforcement tool. The bill would require that the task force consist of 4 specified members, that the members of the task force serve without compensation, and that no state funds be used to compensate the members for expenses incurred in the performance of their official duties. The bill would also provide that the task force would not be required to implement the provisions of the bill except to the extent that nonstate funds are available for that purpose.
