Dear Mayor;
March] 6, 2006
Re:
An LSV is a four-wheeled vehicle, as define in 49 CFR s. 571 .3(b), whose attainable speed
is more than 20 miles per hour and no more an 25 miles per hour on a paved level surface.
The vehicle cannot be powered by gas or esel fuel and must comply with federal safety
standards as noted in 49 CFR 5.571 ,500.
Municipalities may ban these veblcles on aU their roads by ordinance under this Dew
law. In recognition of the fact that the I w will allow these vehicles on 25 per mile
municipal streets before it will be possible or municipalities to put such an ordinance in
place, the Motor Vehicle Commission has a eed as a courtesy to temporarily put a list of
m\lI1icipalities who have notified the Commi sion of plans to ban LSV's on their website, so
that residents will be infò 0 e an e re purc asing and licensing the velùcles. Until
further notice. if your municipality plans to an LSVs, you may fax an advisory of that fact
to Daria Gerard of the MVC at 609-984-13 O. If you would like a call to confinn receipt,
you must put the phone number and contact son on the fax.
The following are some general guidelines fo LSV's:
· LSVs may not be driven on roadw s with speed limits that exceed 25 mph. In
limited cases, if deemed appropriate b a municipality or county or DOT, LSVs may
be permitted on roadways with speed imits that do not exceed 35 mph.
· LSV operators should watch for and abide by road signs prohibiting use even on
lower speed roads.
. LSV s may not be modified golf carts.
· An LSV must have a 17 digit Vehicle dentification Number,
. Clùld restraints in LSVs must meet e same standards as clùld restraints used in
passenger vehicles,
· LSVs must be operated by a person with a valid driver license only (no permits,
provisional or suspended licenses).
· Properly titled, registered and insured LSVs may be leased or rented for temporary
use.
· An LSV may be registered in the n e of an individUàl, business or government
entity, but may not be used as a comm ial vehicle.
· LSVs and their owners/operators are subject to e same motor vehicle violations as other
vehicles and drivers except for the regular inspe<: ion requirements.
. All LSVs shall have a safety infonnation de<:al, provided by the manufacturer, affixed
in a conspicuous place on the rear of the vehic e. The decal shall display in prominent
lettering "25 MPH Vehicle."
. LSV s displaying only one license plate shall hay that license plate affixed on the rear of
the car,
More information on this new law will be available on the MVC website,
htto://www.ni.l!ov/mvc/. The Department of Transpo lion will issue guidelines on the notice
that municipalities must provide to DOT to ban or limit the use of these vehicles on their roads.
We will keep you informed ofthese developments
