Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to requiring that operators of limited use motorcycles receive rules of the road pamphlets
AI Summary
This bill requires that when a limited use motorcycle is registered in New York, the operator must be provided with an informational pamphlet in the ten most commonly spoken languages in the state. The pamphlet must include critical information about the rules of the road for limited use motorcycles, specifically detailing speed limits, where these motorcycles can be legally ridden, and the potential consequences for not following these rules. A "limited use motorcycle" typically refers to smaller motorcycles or motorized bikes with restrictions on where and how they can be operated. By mandating this multilingual informational resource, the bill aims to improve safety and ensure that operators understand the legal requirements and potential penalties associated with riding these types of motorcycles. The bill will go into effect 60 days after becoming law, giving state authorities time to prepare and distribute the required informational materials.
