Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill prohibits a person from operating on a highway any animal-drawn vehicle that is drawn by an animal wearing horseshoes that will injure the highway.
The bill also authorizes counties and municipalities to enact ordinances to prohibit the operation of any vehicle that is drawn by an animal wearing a horseshoe with a spike or protuberance that extends more than one-quarter inch beyond the surface of the horseshoe during the months of April to October. The bill provides that the prohibition is enforceable only if the county or municipality erects a sign on each highway under its jurisdiction that crosses its territorial boundary notifying vehicle operators of the prohibition. The bill provides that a person violating these provisions may be required to forfeit $25 for a second offense and $50 for a third or subsequent offense.
