A. It is hereby declared that it is necessary in the public

interest to regulate transportation by motor carriers and private

carriers in such manner as to recognize the need to require all

motor carriers and private carriers to have adequate insurance; for

efficient manner; and to establish that the operations of motor

carriers and private carriers will not have a detrimental impact on

the environment.

hereinafter specifically limited, shall apply to the transportation

of passengers or property by motor carriers and private carriers,

over public highways of this state; and the regulations of such

transportation, and the procurement thereof and the provisions of

facilities therefor, are hereby vested in the Oklahoma Corporation

Commission.

exercise by agencies of the government of the United States of its

power of regulation of interstate commerce.
