      1.  The provisions of NRS 484D.635, 484D.640 and 484D.645 do not apply to any highway that is a part of the Federal-Aid Primary System, Federal-Aid Urban System, Federal-Aid Secondary System or Interstate System if their application would prevent this State from receiving any federal funds for highway purposes under section 127 of Title 23, U.S.C.

      2.  The Department of Transportation, with respect to highways under its jurisdiction, and the governing bodies of cities and counties, with respect to roads and streets under their jurisdiction, after determining that use by vehicles otherwise conforming with the maximum weight limits prescribed in NRS 484D.635, 484D.640 and 484D.645 is likely to cause substantial stress to any highway, road, street, or portion or structure thereof, may, by proper notice, fix a reduced maximum weight limit for vehicles which may pass over any such highway, road, street, or portion or structure thereof.
