H 509: IDAHO TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT – Amends existing law to provide that certain vehicles shall not be subject to more than one inspection within a seventy-two-hour period.

H 509 limits repeated inspections for certain commercial trucks in Idaho. It amends state law to ensure vehicles weighing over 26,001 pounds (excluding those carrying hazardous materials) cannot be inspected more than once within a 72-hour period after an initial inspection at state checkpoints. The Idaho Transportation Department must implement technology to allow these vehicles to bypass redundant inspections during that window. This directly affects commercial truck drivers and operators hauling goods within Idaho, reducing unnecessary stops and delays. The bill takes effect July 1, 2026.
