Summary

Existing law, the Motor Carriers of Property Permit Act, defines a "commercial motor vehicle" as, among other things, any motor truck of 2 or more axles that is more than 10,000 pounds gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) . Existing law defines a "pickup truck" as a motor truck with a manufacturer's gross vehicle weight rating of less than 11,500 pounds, an unladen weight of less than 8,001 pounds, and which is equipped with an open box-type bed not exceeding 9 feet in length. This bill would increase this GVWR to 11,500 or more pounds thereby excluding any motor truck of 2 or more axles, and any pickup truck, that is less than 11,500 pounds from the act's provisions.
