AB105,1,2 1An Act to amend 340.01 (2g) of the statutes; relating to: modifying the
2definition of all-terrain vehicle.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Current law defines an "all-terrain vehicle" as an engine-driven device with
a width of not more than 48 inches and a net weight of 650 pounds or less that is
designed to travel on at least 3 low-pressure tires and that is equipped with a seat
designed to be straddled by the vehicle operator.
This bill expands the definition of "all-terrain vehicle" by increasing the
maximum allowable net weight of an all-terrain vehicle to 700 pounds.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
