Nebraska Cattlemen applauds the unanimous passage of LB 490 on Final Reading. This commonsense legislation aims to protect feed trucks and agriculture machinery and equipment from being classified as a motor vehicle.
Specifically, Senator Dan McKeon’s LB 490 would clarify current statues and allow producers to receive titles for their equipment without a obtaining a wrongful motor vehicle classification and requiring producers to unnecessarily pay for licensing and registration. LB 490 also aims to increase efficiency for feed truck dealers and consumers alike, by eliminating the need to continually keep previous bills of sale on a feed truck and by streamlining the buying process.
LB 490 will head to Governor Jim Pillen’s desk for further consideration.
