Representative KC Becker, prime sponsor, presented Senate Bill 16-173 to the committee. Under current law, a local authority may authorize the use of golf cars on local roads but not on state highways. This bill allows a local authority to authorize a person driving a golf car on a local road to cross a state highway at an at-grade crossing in order to continue traveling on the local road. Local authorization can be by ordinance or resolution but only to the extent necessary for the local authority to regulate a local road and not to interfere with the normal operation of the state highway.
