REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
from Art. 66 1/2, §14-106 (a) - except the
first sentence of that section, which now
appears in §24—106 of this subtitle.
In subsections (b) and (d)(2) of this section,
the term "publicly maintained highway" is
substituted for "public highway"; in this
regard, see revisor's note to §24—101 of this
subtitle. However, it might be noted that
this creates a minor inconsistency with
§24—106 of this subtitle, which — as in the
present law — applies to "any highway".
Unless a valid reason exists for the
distinction, the General Assembly might
consider deleting the limiting language here.
In subsection (b) of this section, the term
"vehicle" is substituted for the present
reference to a "motor vehicle, trailer, or
semitrailer" for brevity and to conform with
the intent of this section, the overall scheme
and terminology of this subtitle, and the
Uniform Vehicle Code.
The only other changes are in style.
As to exceptions applicable to this section,
see §24—106(a) of this section.
24-106.2. SAME - TRANSPORTATION OF LUMBER, PIPE, STEEL,
OR SIMILAR MATERIALS.
