A bill to amend 1949 PA 300, entitled “Michigan vehicle code,” by amending section 634 (MCL 257.634), as amended by 2021 PA 43.
House Bill 5304 would amend the Michigan Vehicle Code to modify provisions that address lane usage by certain trucks and semitrailers. The code currently requires the driver of a truck with a gross weight of more than 10,000 pounds, a truck tractor, or a combination of a vehicle and trailer or semitrailer to drive only in either of the two lanes farthest to the right, except for a reasonable distance when making a left turn or where a special hazard exists that requires the use of an alternative lane for safety reasons.
