Plain-language change summary

The amendments to Bill HB 11 clarify the conditions under which government officials can search a vehicle for dyed diesel fuel violations. Specifically, officials must have probable cause, consent from the vehicle owner, or be at a designated port-of-entry to conduct such inspections. This change is important as it protects individuals' rights by ensuring that simply driving a diesel vehicle does not automatically create grounds for a search, promoting fair treatment for vehicle owners.
