Florida prepares for Wilma, waives truck weight limits
Under a state of emergency declared yesterday by Florida Gov. Jeb Bush in advance of Hurricane Wilma weight restrictions on commercial vehicles will be lifted for 60 days.
Trucks will be allowed to increase their loads from 80,000 to 95,000 pounds to assist in hurricane recovery.
The order also suspends the requirement that a health certificate accompany animals being transported from areas threatened or impacted by the storm.
