***AUTHORS SUBJECT TO CHANGE***
AN ACT to amend 23.33 (3) (em) and 23.33 (6r) of the statutes; relating to:
passenger restrictions on all-terrain vehicles.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, it is unlawful to ride on an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) or
utility terrain vehicle (UTV) on a part of the ATV or UTV that is not designed for use
by passengers. It is also unlawful to operate an ATV or UTV with such a passenger.
This bill provides that these restrictions do not apply to an ATV with one passenger
in a second seated position.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
SECTION 1. 23.33 (3) (em) of the statutes is amended to read:
23.33 (3) (em) Except as provided in sub. (11m), with a passenger riding in or
on any part of an all-terrain vehicle or utility terrain vehicle that is not designed or
intended to be used by passengers. This paragraph does not apply to an all-terrain
vehicle with one passenger in a second seated position.
SECTION 2. 23.33 (6r) of the statutes is amended to read:
