Plain-language summary

Beta

This bill would update Kentucky's transportation law to classify electric vehicle batteries as a "nondivisible load," meaning they would be treated like other oversized cargo that cannot be broken into smaller pieces for transport. This classification affects how such loads are regulated when moved on state-maintained highways. Who it may affect: trucking companies, freight carriers, and businesses that transport electric vehicle batteries on Kentucky roads.
