Assembly Bill #1385

Introduced by Assembly Member Miller

February 27, 2009

The following is from

www.leginfo.gov

"An act to amend Section 25258 of the Vehicle Code, relating to vehicles."

AB 1385, as amended, Miller. Arson Vehicles: authorized emergency  vehicles: blue warning lights. Existing law allows an authorized emergency vehicle used by a peace officer, as defined, in the performance of his or her duties to display a steady or flashing blue warning light visible from the front, sides, or rear of the vehicle. This bill would expand the definition of peace officer for purposes of that provision to include certain members of an arson investigating unit, members of a fire department or fire protection agency, voluntary fire wardens as designated by the Director of Forestry and Fire Protection, and firefighters/security guards designated by the Military Department.
