MOTOCYCLER's BBS

Florida's 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 50 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. Additionally, motorcyclists would have to maintain both wheels on the ground at all times and license plates be permanently affixed horizontally to the ground.

A related bill (SB-802) has been introduced in the Senate by Senator Rudy Garcia (R- Hialeah).

Even if you obey the law, HB-137 is discriminatory and unfair because it sends the wrong message - motorcyclists are the only threat on public roadways. Car, light truck, and SUV drivers, alleged to have violated the same laws, do not face the same harsh penalties.
Florida Senate bill 828, sponsored by Sen. Michael Bennett (R-Bradenton), would prohibit passengers younger than 12 years of age on a motorcycle or moped.
