FLORIDA RIDERS - ALERT
Action Alert
Action Alert 01/08/2008 Draconian Legislation Proposed in Florida
Seizure and forfeiture of motorcycles part of legislation
HB 137, "Offenses Committed While Operating a Motorcycle", introduced by Representative Carlos Lopez-Cantera (R-Miami), proposes that any motorcyclist charged with reckless operation or riding 30 miles per hour or greater above the posted speed limit would face arrest, seizure and forfeiture of their motorcycle, and revocation of their motorcycle endorsement for ten years. The legislation applies ONLY to motorcycles and their operators; no other motorized vehicle or driver operating on a public roadway is threatened with these penalties.
The AMA is fighting this but call your congressman anyway this is discrimatory. It was proposed last year but failed to pass
