What’s in it

AI summary This law changes how the state lists certain emergency vehicles on the books. It removes the word "official" from the descriptions of these vehicles. The rules and responsibilities for the people driving these vehicles will stay exactly the same.1

Read the official explanation

This bill amends provisions in Code chapter 321 (motor vehicles and law of the road) by striking the word “official” when it precedes lists of authorized emergency vehicles and other similar vehicles. The bill does not amend the rights and responsibilities of a person who operates such a vehicle.
