Lege TREND Moving Trucking Regulators in the Indian Blanket Flower State

State: Oklahoma

The trucking proposal: Move trucking regulatory adjudication from the Oklahoma Corportion Commission to the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety

Oklahoma Trucking Association: Gave the appearance of opposition without stating opposition

Opposition included:

  • Linking the bill author to his role as a “oboard member of HELP, a non-profit that owns PrePass, which has developed products that enable trucks to be weighed by means other than the traditional weight station.”
  • Reduce revenue to the Oklahoma Corporation Commission

Supporter arguments: Streamlines trucking regulation into a single agency
