AB 264

Under current law, the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) administers

the laws regulating all-terrain vehicle (ATV) and utility terrain vehicle (UTV)

registration and operation. Generally, a person operating an ATV or UTV must

register the ATV or UTV with DNR, unless certain limited exemptions apply. A

person who operates an ATV or UTV exclusively for agricultural purposes or on

private property may register the ATV or UTV for private use. A person who

registers an ATV or UTV for public use may operate the ATV or UTV on an ATV trail

or other established public ATV corridor. A person who registers an ATV or UTV for

public use must attach his or her own plate, displaying the registration number of

the ATV or UTV, to the rear of the vehicle. He or she must also affix a registration

decal, furnished by DNR, to each side of the vehicle. This bill eliminates the

requirement that a person who registers an ATV or UTV for public use must attach

a plate to the ATV or UTV.
