Existing law requires a person under 18 years of age to wear a properly fitted and fastened bicycle helmet, as specified, while operating, or riding as a passenger upon, a bicycle, a nonmotorized scooter, or a skateboard, or while wearing in-line or roller skates, upon a street, bikeway, or any other public bicycle path or trail. A violation of the Vehicle Code is punishable as an infraction.This bill would require a person under 18 years of age to wear a properly fitted and fastened helmet meeting specified requirements when that person is riding a horse, as defined, on a public street or highway. Because a violation of that requirement would be a crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. Existing law requires, among other things, that the driver of a vehicle, other than a common carrier vehicle, involved in any accident resulting in injuries or death to make or cause to be made, within 24 hours after the accident, a written accident report to the Department of the California Highway Patrol or, if the accident occurred within a city, to either the Department of the California Highway Patrol or the police department of the city in which the accident occurred. Existing law requires every police department that receives a report to forward the report to the Department of the California Highway Patrol. The bill would require a law enforcement agency that responds to a horse-involved collision, as defined, to note that fact in the agencys report and to report, on at least an annual basis, to the Transportation Agency the number of horse-involved collisions to which the agency responded. The bill would require a law enforcement agency that receives an accident report that indicates that the accident was a horse-involved collision to report, on at least an annual basis, to the Transportation Agency the number of horse-involved collisions that were reported to the law enforcement agency in those reports. By creating a new reporting duty for local law enforcement agencies, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program.The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.The bill would provide that with regard to certain mandates no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.With regard to any other mandates, the bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs so mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: YES Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1. Article 8 (commencing with Section 21300) is added to Chapter 1 of Division 11 of the Vehicle Code, to read: Article 8. Horseback Riding21300.
