Allows commercial motor vehicles carrying defined “dry bulk goods” to exceed the usual maximum axle or axle-group weight limit by up to 10% (i.e., carry 110% of the normal axle limit) provided the vehicle still complies with the statutory overall gross vehicle weight limit. It defines “dry bulk goods” and creates a special axle-weight rule limited to vehicles transporting those goods.

The change is narrowly focused on axle-weight enforcement for certain freight loads; it affects truck operators, freight carriers, and state/local enforcement agencies and could change trip economics and enforcement practices without changing the maximum total vehicle weight allowed.
