Finally, air quality regulators at the California Air Resources Board (CARB) recognize that their electric truck regulations have contributed to an unprecedented towing and recovery truck chassis shortage.
CARB is considering amending the regulations at an October 24th hearing. Whether this will lead to meaningful reforms is unknown, but this is where you come in.
This may be our last chance to ask CARB to exempt towing and recovery trucks from the regulations — as they did for government-owned towing vehicles.
Thank you.
