Flaps on Trucks, Trailers and Semitrailers

Flaps on Trucks and Semitrailers. No person shall operate a motor truck, trailer, semitrailer, or any other commercial double rear wheeled vehicle upon a highway in the Commonwealth unless the motor truck, trailer, semitrailer, or commercial double rear wheeled vehicle is equipped with flaps or other protective devices, on its rear, that prohibit the throwing of water, rocks, and other debris. Source: PL 3-61, § 1 (§ 415); amended by PL 20-90, § 7 (Feb. 18, 2019). Commission Comment: PL 20-90 § 7 provided: Section 7. Amendment. 9 CMC § 4115 is amended to read as follows: “§ 4115. Flaps on Trucks and Semitrailers. No person shall operate a motor truck, trailer, semitrailer, or any other commercial double rear wheeled vehicle upon a highway in the Commonwealth unless the motor truck, trailer, semitrailer, or commercial double rear wheeled vehicle is equipped with flaps or other protective devices, on its rear, that prohibit the throwing of water, rocks, and other debris.” In codifying PL 20-90, the Commission codified the amendment to read as set forth in PL 20-90 § 7, which changed the title of § 4115 and effectively replaced (a) and (b).
