Bill > SB1517

This bill modifies Arizona's off-highway vehicle (OHV) registration laws by expanding the definition of an off-highway vehicle and clarifying temporary registration rules. Specifically, the bill defines an OHV as a recreational vehicle that is no more than 80 inches wide, weighs no more than 2,500 pounds, travels on four or more non-highway tires, has a steering wheel, rollover protective structure, and occupant retention system. The bill also adjusts temporary registration rules, allowing the Department of Transportation to issue a temporary registration for up to 30 days for individuals who do not qualify for permanent registration or are non-residents with vehicles titled in another state. Additionally, the bill extends the sunset date of the Arizona Off-Highway Vehicle Study Committee from May 31, 2025, to May 31, 2027, which will allow the committee to continue studying and making recommendations about off-highway vehicle issues in the state. The changes aim to provide more flexibility for OHV owners while maintaining regulatory oversight and safety standards.
