Trans 119.03 NoteNote: This rule is adopted to clarify the drafters’ intent that an employer is subject to s. 343.245, Stats., sanctions if the employer orders or allows an employe to operate a commercial motor vehicle when the employe would violate Wisconsin’s “not-a-drop” law if the employe operated a commercial motor vehicle. It is not intended to limit the scope of s. 343.245 (3) (b) 3., Stats.
