An Act

to amend
23.33 (1) (ng) 1. a. and 23.33 (1) (ng) 2. a. of the statutes;
2
relating to:
the weight limit for utility terrain vehicles.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill raises from 3,000 pounds to 3,500 pounds the maximum weight allowable for a motor driven device to be classified as a utility terrain vehicle (UTV).
Under current law, a UTV is defined as a commercially designed and manufactured motor driven device, other than a golf cart, low-speed vehicle, dune buggy, mini-truck, or tracked vehicle, that is designed to be used primarily off of a highway and that was manufactured to meet certain size and equipment specifications. Current law specifications limit UTVs to a weight, without fluids, of not more than 3,000 pounds.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
SB339,1
