1 1 Section 1. Section 321.453, Code 1995, is amended to read
1 2 as follows:
1 3 321.453 EXCEPTIONS.
1 4 The provisions of this chapter governing size, weight, and
1 5 load, and the permit requirements of chapter 321E do not apply
1 6 to fire apparatus, to road maintenance equipment owned by or
1 7 under lease to any state or local authority, to implements of
1 8 husbandry temporarily moved upon a highway, to implements
1 9 moved from farm site to farm site or between the retail seller
1 10 and a farm purchaser within a one hundred mile radius from the
1 11 retail seller's place of business, to indivisible implements
1 12 of husbandry temporarily moved between the place of
1 13 manufacture and a retail seller or a farm purchaser, to
1 14 implements received and moved by a retail seller of implements
1 15 of husbandry in exchange for an implement purchased, or to
1 16 implements of husbandry moved for repairs, except on any part
1 17 of the interstate highway system. However, the maximum gross
1 18 weight provisions of section 321.463 shall apply to implements
1 19 of husbandry that are trailers. A vehicle, carrying an
1 20 implement of husbandry, which is exempted from the permit
1 21 requirements under this section shall be equipped with an
1 22 amber flashing light under section 321.423, shall be equipped
1 23 with warning flags on that portion of the vehicle which
1 24 protrudes into oncoming traffic, and shall only operate from
1 25 thirty minutes prior to sunrise to thirty minutes following
1 26 sunset.
1 27 EXPLANATION
1 28 All vehicles which are designed for agricultural purposes
1 29 and exclusively used in the conduct of agricultural operations
1 30 are considered implements of husbandry pursuant to chapter
1 31 321. This bill provides that a trailer used as an implement
1 32 of husbandry is subject to the gross weight restrictions of
1 33 section 321.463 despite the exceptions for implements of
1 34 husbandry in section 321.453. Currently, under section 321.1,
1 35 subsection 32, paragraph "c", semitrailers converted to
2 1 trailers for agricultural purposes are subject to section
2 2 321.463.
