N.C. SCOOTS READ THIS!!

[Kaos]

Attention North Carolinians:

If this bill passes, you cannot have a passenger, must register your scooter/moped and must have insurance......eventually they will probably require a license too.

Luckily the bill is in committee stage, where it is the easiest to kill. I also don't see any co-sponsors which hopefully means there isn't much support. Either way, writing the members of the Commerce committee (where it is referred) is the easiest and most effective means to influence them. They are very accessible and will reply to you personally. You can find the members here:

email each member and urge them to not support this bill.

Thought you might want to know that there is also another bill in NC that has passed the first reading that will raise the maximum speed from 30 mph to 50 mph on 50cc scooters .If you can keep this in court long enough, this bill may actually get passed. Google " house bill 166 in NC" to check it out. This is one bill that I really hope they pass ! I posted this in the other section too, just wanted to make sure that you saw it.
