Comment
As the owner of a small towing business, I am dismayed at CARB's
new law regarding the low emissions exemption applying to
government owned tow company vehicles and excluding privately owned
towing vehicles.  In as much as the technology does NOT exist to
meet the requirements of this new law for tow truck vehicles; it is
logical that ALL emergency towing vehicles be exempted, not just
government owned towing vehicles.  CARB is literally killing an
industry that already struggles with very high insurance rates,
highest fuel rates in the US, very high payroll costs, and low pay
roadside towing and service contract rates.  I strongly urge CARB
to reconsider their law and amend it to include privately owned
towing companies are exempt.
Thank you for your consideration.
