What’s in it
Under current law, a person is prohibited from operating an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) with more persons on the ATV than the ATV was designed to carry, unless the person is operating an ATV as part of a farm operation. A person who violates this provision commits a simple misdemeanor punishable by a scheduled fine of $135. This bill provides an exception to the ATV passenger limit for a person operating an ATV that is modified to carry no more than one additional person so long as the modification is an aftermarket product or original equipment manufacturer product that is both specifically designed to carry a person as a passenger on the type of ATV to which the product is secured and is manufactured for commercial sale.
