Oregon Administrative Rules › Chapter 734 - DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, HIGHWAY DIVISION › Division 71 - LENGTHS OF VEHICLES, LOADS, AND COMBINATIONS OF VEHICLES IN OPERATION WITHOUT NEED OF SPECIAL PERMIT › Section 734-071-0005 - Scope

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
(1) Oregon's
			 statutes are basically quite restrictive in establishing length of vehicles,
			 loads, and combinations of vehicles. The lengths established are for those
			 vehicles or combinations which can be operated safely upon any highway
			 including older highways not reconstructed to present day standards.
(2) Nearly all of the state highway system
			 can safely accommodate vehicles and combinations with lengths in excess of
			 those established under the basic statutes. The statutes recognize this by
			 allowing longer lengths on designated highways subject to special permits
			 issued pursuant to ORS chapters 810 and 818 or under the authority of
			 administrative rules adopted by the Oregon Department of
			 Transportation.
(3) OAR
			 734-071-0005  through 734-071-0060  do not apply to vehicles authorized by the
			 Surface Transportation Assistance Act of 1982 when operating on National
			 Network Highways or highways where reasonable access beyond one mile has been
			 granted. These vehicles are authorized by OAR chapter 734, divisions 73 and
			 74.
(4) OAR 734-071-0005  through
			 734-071-0060  do not apply to vehicles licensed, or which can be used as
			 recreational vehicles as defined in ORS
			 446.003(37), or
			 to any combination of more than two vehicles not used exclusively for
			 commercial purposes and subject to ORS chapter 823 and 825.

Improvements may be made to some of the Group 2 and Group 3
				highways indicated on Group Map 1. Those improvements may make it appropriate
				to reclassify the highway or section of highway to a higher group rating which
				would allow vehicles or combinations of greater dimension. In this respect the
				Chief Engineer is authorized to reclassify the group rating of such highways as
				he may consider appropriate when, in his judgment, such a reclassification
				would not diminish the safety afforded the traveling public. Such
