Assemblyman Ivan Lafayette wants to require heavy SUVs to travel along truck routes, saying their girth makes them subject to the same weight-based safety standards as their commercial cousins.

"Where does a passenger vehicle end and a truck begin?" Lafayette asked. "Is a 10,000-pound Hummer a truck?" ...

I agree, weight is weight.
