Bill Summary
As enacted, defines "fully enclosed" as having side panels, a roll bar or roof, and a windshield with regard to crash helmet requirements not applying to autocycles that are fully enclosed. - Amends TCA Title 55.
AI Summary
This bill amends Tennessee's transportation code by adding a definition for the term "fully enclosed" in the context of vehicles, specifying that it means a vehicle with side panels, a roll bar or roof, and a windshield. While the government-provided summary references an extended deadline for an advisory task force report on impaired driving and boating, the actual bill text does not include details about this deadline extension. The bill would take effect immediately upon becoming law, as stated in Section 2, with the legislative intent of serving the public welfare. The modification appears to be a technical clarification that could be relevant for vehicle classification or safety regulations, though the specific context or purpose for defining "fully enclosed" is not elaborated in the provided bill text.
