8.10.010 Findings.

The city council finds that an extremely bad litter problem is caused by the driving of pickup trucks and other vehicles loaded with trash or garbage intended for the Clallam County refuse transfer station at Lake Creek, on public roads without properly securing the load. (Ord. 315 § 1, 1990)

8.10.020 Securing load.

It is unlawful to drive a motor vehicle on the public roadways of Forks unless any and all garbage, garden waste, paper waste, newspapers and/or trash, on or within the motor vehicle, are so loaded and/or secured that there is no reasonable possibility that any part or portion of the said garbage, garden waste, paper waste, newspapers and/or trash would fall from or be sucked out of the said motor vehicle if the vehicle were driven at a speed of 55 miles per hour. (Ord. 315 § 2, 1990)
