All-terrain vehicle definition modification
SF 958 amends Minnesota's definition of "all-terrain vehicle" (ATV) by increasing the maximum allowable dry weight from 2,000 to 3,000 pounds. This change directly affects ATV manufacturers, owners, and enforcement agencies by expanding the scope of vehicles classified as ATVs under state law. The bill also clarifies that ATVs exclude electric-assisted bicycles, golf carts, mini-trucks, dune buggies, go-carts, and vehicles designed for specific purposes like lawn care or mining. The amendment modifies Minnesota Statutes section 84.92, subdivision 8, to reflect this updated definition.
