Arizona Off-Highway Vehicle Laws, Rules and Regulations
|
|
The Arizona Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Division (MVD) is responsible for title and registration of motor vehicles in Arizona.
Title and registration are two different things. A title is proof of ownership, while registration allows you to operate a vehicle on public roads. For title purposes, ATVs are classified as off-road recreational motor vehicles. A title is required for ATVs.
If the driver of an off-road vehicle intends to drive on Arizona streets or highways, the vehicle must be properly registered. An ATV must be street legal before registration can be issued; some ATVs may require additional equipment or modifications in order to meet this requirement.

There are numerous opportunities for OHV recreation in Arizona. Local land management agencies have information and maps available. Please contact the local land management agencies for updated information on access, closures, rules and regulations, and other information prior to planning activities.

Utah Introduction to SB181S01 - Off Highway Vehicle Use on Public Highways
|
|
|
SB181S01 modifies the Insurance Code and the Motor Vehicles Code by amending provisions governing the use of off-highway vehicles, specifically ATVs, on public highways. It creates by definition a new class of motor vehicles known as Street-Legal All-terrain Vehicles, or Street-Legal ATVs, defines the operational and equipment requirements for street-legal ATVs, and modifies the law as it relates to county and municipality authority to designate highways under their respective jurisdictions for OHV use. The Chief Sponsor of the bill was Senator Scott Jenkins, with Representative Michael Noel acting as the House sponsor. The bill takes effect on October 1, 2008.
