PAG LIN 1 1 Section 1. Section 321.460, Code 1995, is amended to read 1 2 as follows: 1 3 321.460 SPILLING LOADS ON HIGHWAYS. 1 4 A vehicle shall not be driven or moved on any highway by 1 5 any person unless such vehicle is so constructed or loaded or 1 6 the load securely covered as to prevent any of its load from 1 7 dropping, sifting, leaking, or otherwise escaping or its load 1 8 covering from dropping from the vehicle, except that sand may 1 9 be dropped for the purpose of securing traction, or water or 1 10 other substance may be sprinkled on a roadway in cleaning or 1 11 maintaining such roadway. The provisions of this section shall 1 12 not apply to vehicles loaded with hay or stover or the 1 13 products listed in section 321.466, subsections 5 and 6, 1 14 except for ground limestone. 1 15 EXPLANATION 1 16 Current law requires that when transporting a substance in 1 17 a vehicle, the vehicle must be constructed or loaded or the 1 18 load securely covered so as to prevent any of the load from 1 19 dropping, sifting, leaking, or escaping. There is an 1 20 exception for the transportation of hay or stover and certain 1 21 other products, including ground limestone. This bill removes 1 22 the exception for the transportation of ground limestone, thus 1 23 requiring that the load be securely covered. 1 24 LSB 3637XS 76 1 25 js/jj/8
