E-MAIL BLAST
This is our monthly printing to keep our members informed as to what’s happening.
POLITICAL HAPPENINGS :
SB 435 (the Smog Bill) Because of your efforts and actions, we have it slowed down to a crawl now, and it probably won't be heard until June.....But we are still keeping a close eye on it.
AB 1205 (our helmet law modification bill) will be presented to the Assembly soon.
AB 1664 (motorcycle w/trailer speed limit) ABATE is a co/sponsor of this bill which will allow motorcycles with trailers to ride at the posted speed limit, in whatever lane they choose, including in the HOV lane.
