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.
