limit the liability of law enforcement officers and others when removing a disabled vehicle from a highway, a right of way, or public waters.
Signed by the Governor on 2026-03-09
Summary
The bill requires law‑enforcement officers and certain state agencies to arrange removal of disabled vehicles or watercraft that block traffic or pose a hazard, and places the cost of that removal on the vehicle owner. It also shields those officers and agencies from civil liability unless they act with gross negligence or willful misconduct. The measure aims to clarify duties and protect public‑safety responders while ensuring owners pay for the service.
