This bill amends the definition of "authorized emergency vehicle" in Louisiana law to include vehicles used for coroner investigations. Specifically, it adds the phrase "vehicles used for coroner investigations as designated by the parish coroner" to the existing list of authorized emergency vehicles, which already includes fire department vehicles, police vehicles, and ambulances, among others.

The amendment aims to clarify and expand the scope of what constitutes an authorized emergency vehicle, ensuring that vehicles utilized in coroner investigations are recognized as such. This change is intended to enhance the operational capabilities of coroners during emergencies and streamline their response efforts.
