Escort requirements modification for certain oversized loads

Summary

The bill adds a new rule for transporting manufactured and modular homes that exceed normal dimensions. It says that if a peace officer orders an escort beyond what the existing law requires, that officer cannot also serve as the escort or be paid, and the Department of Public Safety must cover the escort cost using its own funds. It also clarifies that a brief centerline crossing does not count as extending beyond the left side for certain escort rules.
