Latest version.

The holder of an overweight permit assumes full responsibility for any damage to the public streets, bridges and appurtenances, structures, signs, public utilities and any other public feature encountered on the route of the movement. Whenever the driver is not the owner of a vehicle causing any such damage but is operating, driving or moving the vehicle with the express or implied permission of the owner, then the owner and the driver shall be jointly and severally liable for any such damage, and the municipality may take action for recovery of damages. The municipality, if deemed advisable, may require the posting of a bond or evidence of insurance by the applicant, for the protection of the municipality.
