2015 House Bill 4228

Authorize pedal-powered beer bars

Introduced in the House

Feb. 24, 2015

Introduced by Rep. Jeff Irwin (D-53)

To establish in statute that a “commercial quadricycle,” which is a pedal-powered mobile beer bar, is not considered a “motor vehicle” even if it has auxiliary power, and instead would be subject to the less onerous regulations imposed on “low-speed vehicles,” or if operated on a sidewalk, the regulations imposed on “Segways.” Under this and House Bill 4227 passengers would be allowed to have open beer or wine containers, but the driver would be required to have a blood alcohol level of zero.

Referred to the Committee on Tourism and Outdoor Recreation
