SB 17 Kansas Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Excepting haulers of grain and certain other agricultural goods from gross weight limitations for vehicles.

SB 17 exempts vehicles hauling grain and certain agricultural goods from standard gross weight limits on Kansas highways. This change directly affects farmers, grain transport companies, and agricultural businesses that move these products. The bill amends Kansas law (K.S.A. 8-1909) to create a specific exception to weight regulations for agricultural haulers. This policy change allows these vehicles to operate with heavier loads than the standard limits specified in the weight table.
