State law to govern motor vehicle use on National Park roads.
This bill proposes to change the rules for using motor vehicles on roads within National Park System units. It means that state law, rather than federal regulations, will determine how vehicles can be used and what traffic rules apply inside the parks. For citizens, this simplifies compliance: the same rules that apply on state roads will apply in the parks, potentially making travel easier and reducing the risk of unknowingly breaking the law.
Key points
Traffic Rules: State law, not federal law, will govern the use of motor vehicles (including off-highway vehicles) on roads within National Park units.
Vehicle Definitions: The definition of an 'off-highway vehicle' will be determined by the law of the state where the park unit is located.
Enforcement: Violating state traffic laws within a park unit will be prohibited and treated as a violation within the National Park System.
