Assemblyman Martin Ginsberg
of Plainview, prefiled a bill man­dating
the use of tarpaulins or
other suitable and legal covers
for all open commercial vehicles
transporting sand, gravel or
other loose materials over the
highways. His bill would also
cover open commercial vehicles
carrying other goods, wares or
merchandise whether boxed, cra­ted
or unc rated.
His bill, said Ginsberg, will
require use of a canvas tarpaul­in
or covering which must be
securely fastened or anchored
to the body of the vehicle. This
would prevent the tarpaulin or
covering from coining loose or
blowing in such a manner as to
permit sand, gravel or loose
material to escape to the high­way.
" This bill Is necessary/' said
Ginsberg, " for highway safety
reasons. At present, sand gravel
or other loose material not
properly covered by a tarpaulin
can blow off a track into or on
following vehicles and cause t e r ­rible
accidents, as has happened
on the Loqg Island Expressway
in particular. If this loose
blowing sand, gravel or other
material does not cause ac­cidents,
at the very least it
damages windshields, paint or
bodies of these unfortunate fol­lowing
vehicles."
Ginsberg said be has received
many requests from residents
of his Ninth Assembly District,
asking him to introduce such en­forcement
legislation.
