Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, a minor under the age of 12 may operate an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) only if the minor either is operating the ATV under adult supervision for an agricultural purpose or is operating a small ATV on a Department of Natural Resources-designated ATV trail and is subject to continuous verbal direction or control by a parent. Under the bill, a minor under the age of 12 may also operate a small ATV on an ATV route that is directly connected to an ATV trail or on the frozen surface of bodies of water that are open to the public under the continuous verbal direction or control by a parent. An ATV route is a sidewalk or part of a highway designated for use by ATVs while an ATV trail is a corridor designated for ATV use that is away from a highway.
