Iowa SF2036 mandates pilot car escorts for implements of husbandry wider than 22 feet or extending beyond the road center.
Iowa SF2036 introduces a requirement for pilot car escorts when moving implements of husbandry on highways. This applies if the implement's width exceeds 22 feet or if any part extends beyond the road's center. A pilot car must lead on two-lane highways and follow on multi-lane highways. The requirement does not apply to implements moved for one mile or less on primary, farm-to-market, or paved secondary roads. Violation of this provision is a simple misdemeanor with a $45 fine.
