Summary

Existing law limits the length of vehicles and combinations of vehicles coupled together. Existing law permits door handles, hinges, cable cinchers, chain binders, aerodynamic devices, and holders for the display of placards warning of hazardous materials to extend 3 inches on each side of the vehicle. Under existing law, any extension or device used to increase the carrying capacity of a vehicle is generally included in measuring the length of a vehicle, subject to certain exceptions. This bill would also permit a tarping system, as defined, and all nonproperty carrying devices or components to extend 3 inches on each side of the vehicle, as specified. The bill would exclude an aerodynamic device, as defined, that extends no more than 5 feet beyond the rear of a vehicle from the calculation of a vehicle's length if the device meets specified conditions, including that the device does not obscure tail lamps, turn signals, marker lamps, identification lamps, or any other required safety devices.
