Drivers Make the News
Illegal drivers of one kind or another are popular news items this week. Even Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger took a bit of flack from the press after his traffic accident. He was apparently driving a motorcycle and sidecar without having a motorcycle license, though police agencies do seem to disagree on the legality of the situation. The law may not have been clear concerning vehicles equipped with sidecars. Hopefully, Governor Schwarzenegger will use his own confusion to promote road safety and to encourage all drivers to stay current on state laws regarding the operation of motorized vehicles of all kinds. And if the sidecar issue is a source of confusion we can only hope that legislators recognize a need to clarify things.
