Governor signs bill banning ‘squatted vehicles’ in Mississippi
SUMMARY: Beginning July 1, driving “squatted vehicles” with front fenders raised four inches or more higher than the rear fenders will be illegal on Mississippi roads. Governor Tate Reeves signed House Bill 349 into law, making it a misdemeanor to drive these modified motor vehicles. The law aims to improve road safety, as the configuration of squatted vehicles poses visibility issues and potential dangers for other drivers. Truck owners are encouraged to ensure their vehicles comply with the new regulations, with local businesses offering free assistance in measuring and adjusting vehicle height. Violators could face fines or a suspended driver's license.
