A common carrier or contract carrier may not permit or require a driver to operate a vehicle revealed by inspection or operation not to comply with § 29.402 or § 29.403 (relating to vehicle equipment requirements; and requirements for passenger service operation). If a vehicle being operated on a highway is discovered not to comply with § 29.402 or § 29.403, it may be continued in operation to the carrier's nearest terminal, the carrier's place of business or other similar location where repairs can be effected safely; however, this operation may be conducted only if it is less hazardous to the public than permitting the vehicle to remain on the highway.

The provisions of this §29.404 amended under the Public Utility Code, 66 Pa.C.S. § § 501, 1102, 1103, 1501, 1502, 1504, 1506, 1508 and Chapters 23 and 25.
