This bill affects the motor vehicle statutes as follows.

1. It authorizes a law enforcement officer who has stopped a vehicle for another violation to demand and inspect the operator's record of duty status and medical examiner's certificate if the operator is required to have those documents.

2. It allows a permit to be issued by a law enforcement agency to tow an unregistered vehicle using a tow dolly. Currently, a permit can be issued to tow by use of a service wrecker or tow bar.

3. It allows Department of Public Safety vehicles operated by motor carrier inspectors to be equipped with amber auxiliary lights.

4. It requires an operator passing a stationary authorized emergency vehicle that is using an emergency light to yield the right-of-way to that emergency vehicle by changing lanes, if possible, or passing at a careful and prudent speed.

5. It prohibits an operator from following within 150 feet of an authorized emergency vehicle that is using an emergency light.
