Modifies provisions relating to child passengers on motorcycles and motortricycles
SB 1677, known as "Calvin's Law," requires motorcycle operators to ensure children under 10 years old riding as passengers have both feet on foot pegs and use a proper passenger seat (with medical exemption available), while also mandating protective headgear for all child passengers under 10. It affects motorcycle operators transporting young passengers, with penalties including fines up to $100 for violations involving children under 10. The law also specifies that headgear violations for children under 10 carry a $100 maximum fine (compared to $25 for others), with no court costs or license points for headgear non-compliance. The bill takes effect January 1, 2027.
