Starting a new thread with a question that went unanswered in the MB-Legal Future thread...
My state is not MB-friendly due to the way a motor vehicle is defined as any vehicle with a motor, regardless of if it's electric or gas. I'd really be interested in how the "good" states' legislatures became aware of MBs.
Did someone ask a friend in their state's congress to write the law? Did a congressman just see an MBer riding and think, I should help that guy out? Did the congressmen in that state ride their own MBs? Did lots of citizens in one state push for the change? Did they just make it up before they even saw MBs?
Also, this is as good of a place as any to start a list of the states and their current laws. Federal laws have no place in this because the states' officers are the ones who you will encounter and will enforce the state's laws. It'd be sweet if you guys posted factual information about your specific state laws... definition of a MB and terms of riding a MB.
Thanks for the insight & input, all.
