Senators approved a new class of motor vehicle May 21.<\/p>\n
LB231, introduced by Papillion Sen. Jim Smith, defines an autocycle as a three-wheeled motor vehicle controlled by a steering wheel and pedals with a driver and passenger sitting in tandem or side-by side in an enclosed area featuring a removable or fixed top, airbag protection, roll cage, three-point safety belt system and antilock brakes.<\/p>\n
An autocycle is required to have one or two headlamps, at least one tail lamp, a brake and turn signals. The vehicles cannot be used for the driving skills test for an operator\u2019s license exam.<\/p>\n
Fees and taxes are $15 for registration, $25 for the base motor vehicle tax and a $10 base motor vehicle fee.<\/p>\n
Senators passed the bill on a 48-0 vote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
