Disallow motorcycle-only roadblocks as a discriminatory and unconstitutional infringement on one's right of free travel.

+Please share:

I created a petition on We the People, a new feature on WhiteHouse.gov, and ask for your support. Will you please add your name to mine? If this petition gets 25,000 signatures by January 31, 2013, the White House will review it and respond!

We the People allows anyone to create and sign petitions asking the Obama Administration to take action on a range of issues. If a petition gets enough support, the Obama Administration will issue an official response.

You can view and sign the petition here:

Here's some more information about this petition:

Disallow motorcycle-only roadblocks as a discriminatory and unconstitutional infringement on one's right of free travel.

Highway roadblocks diverting only motorcyclists from roadways to conduct "safety checks" serve only to harass, intimidate and inconvenience motorcyclists. Further, motorcycle-only roadblocks of this nature are a discriminatory and unconstitutional infringement upon an individual's right to travel without interference, and an abuse of discretionary power. In the current economic and environmental climate, to better promote motorcycles fitting into the long-term motoring population as practical, efficient alternatives to automobiles and trucks, professionals from local, state, federal and private agencies involved in the effort to reduce deaths and injuries related to traffic crashes, should redirect their combined efforts toward overall driver education of the presence of motorcyclists.

Please read, sign, and share this petition seeking to end discriminatory and unconstitutional motorcycle-only roadblocks.

Thank you for your participation.

Ride on.
