House Bill 1713 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 55-9-414, to allow recovery vehicles to display a single, steady-burning or flashing blue light to the rear of the vehicle while it is stationary and engaged in the recovery of, or providing assistance to, another vehicle. This addition is intended to enhance visibility and safety for recovery operations on the road.
The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces this new provision to clarify the use of blue lights by recovery vehicles. The act is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of public welfare in its implementation.
