Plain-English Summary
Trucks with stinger-steered trailers (a type of semi-truck with an extra axle in the rear) would no longer be required to display warning flags on cargo that sticks out beyond the vehicle's normal width or length. Currently, federal safety rules require all vehicles carrying projecting loads to mark them with flags so other drivers can see the hazard. This change would apply specifically to this particular truck configuration.
