Excepting haulers of grain and certain other agricultural goods from gross weight limitations for vehicles.

Summary

The bill rewrites Kansas’ vehicle‑weight rules, creating a detailed table of axle‑load limits but carving out exemptions for trucks moving grain or other seasonal crops within 50 miles of the field. Those trucks could carry up to 10‑12.5% more weight, but not more than 90,000 lb and never on the interstate system. It also adds testing requirements for certain large vehicles and a small weight boost for natural‑gas‑powered trucks.
