Oklahoma HB2725 amends insurance regulations to address the removal and cleanup of injurious substances on highways.

Oklahoma HB2725 amends existing law to clarify responsibilities for the removal and cleanup of injurious substances on highways. It mandates that anyone who drops or permits the dropping of injurious materials on highways must remove them immediately. The bill also establishes a special lien for fees related to the removal of wrecked or damaged vehicles and other injurious substances, ensuring these fees are paid before other claims. Additionally, it requires truck-tractors carrying cargo to maintain insurance covering the costs of cleaning up any spilled substances on roadways.
