What’s in it

Current law generally prohibits the operation of all- terrain vehicles (ATVs) and off-road utility vehicles (UTVs) on roadways and highways unless otherwise authorized by law. Registered ATVs and UTVs are allowed to operate on undivided two-lane primary highways that are not part of the interstate road system between specified locations, on unpaved secondary roads, on certain paved, undivided secondary roads between specified locations, or on roads or streets otherwise authorized by the county board of supervisors or a city.

Read the full explanation

This bill authorizes registered UTVs to be operated on state park road systems, and anywhere within the boundaries of a state park that a motor vehicle required to be registered under Code chapter 321 (motor vehicles and law of the road) is authorized to operate.3).10 commits a simple misdemeanor punishable by a scheduled fine of $70.36, the maximum speed limit of all vehicles on state park roads and highways is miles per hour, unless a lower speed limit is posted. All driving must be confined to designated roadways.8A(5). The amount of the fine is based on the vehicle’s speed in excess of the applicable limit.
