This bill would allow first responders to operate or drive an off-highway vehicle on a highway to provide emergency response services or perform official duties. It builds upon existing laws that permit off-highway motor vehicles to cross highways under specified conditions. The new provision would similarly permit first responders, such as emergency personnel, to drive on highways to respond to emergencies or complete official tasks.
