§ 1657 Highway Order Revocation Authority

This law says highway commissioners can cancel or change any order they have made whenever they want.

Key Takeaways

  • •Commissioners can undo or adjust their own orders.
  • •They can do it at any time, not just after a set period.
  • •No extra approval is needed to make the change.

Example

A highway commissioner orders a new speed limit of 45 mph on a road, but later decides the traffic flow needs a higher limit.

Because of this law, the commissioner can simply change the speed limit to 55 mph or cancel the order altogether, without waiting for a special process.
