Iowa HF696 modifies vehicle registration requirements for oversized or overweight vehicles operating under a single-trip permit.

Iowa HF696 amends the registration requirements for vehicles that exceed established dimensions and weight limits when operating under a single-trip permit. The bill allows such vehicles to be registered with the Department of Transportation (DOT) on a single-trip basis for the combined gross weight of the vehicle and load. It sets a fee of $4 per ton exceeding 40 tons for single-trip registration. The bill also removes the prohibition on using a Code section 326.23 trip permit in place of the required registration.
