MO HB1733

Municipalities may adopt resolutions or ordinances to permit all-terrain vehicles and utility vehicles to operate on municipal streets and highways under their jurisdiction.

All-terrain vehicles operated on highways must display a bicycle safety flag extending at least 7 feet above ground, be triangular with minimum 30 square inches of day-glow material, and be operated at speeds less than 30 miles per hour.

Utility vehicles may be operated on highways at speeds less than 45 miles per hour and must be equipped with proper lighting if operated outside sunrise to sunset hours.

All-terrain and utility vehicles cannot cross state or federal highways at intersections with posted speed limits exceeding 45 miles per hour, but may cross to intersect with municipal streets.

Violations of all-terrain or utility vehicle operation laws constitute class C misdemeanors, and the attorney general or prosecuting attorney may seek injunctive relief and civil penalties up to $1,000 per day.
