The Summit County Citizens Voice reports that state Sen. Dan Gibbs is pressing ahead with a pair of new laws aimed at easing despite some misgivings on the part of law enforcement officers.
“I think people want action,” Gibbs said, explaining that a measure requiring heavy trucks to stay in the slow lane on steep grades is straight-forward and aimed at three specific areas along the I-70 corridor: Floyd Hill, the Eisenhower-Johnson Tunnel approaches and Vail Pass.
Senate Bill 173 has been assigned to the transportation committee and hasn’t faced any votes yet.
