Answer: RADAR jammers, both active and passive, are illegal under federal law in all 50 states (see excerpt from the FCC press release). Question: Is it legal to drive in a motorhome attached to the bed of my pick-up truck or in a tow behind the motorhome? Question: Would it be legal to install a (police) siren on my car to get an automatic alarm? Question: Is it legal in Michigan to have smoked taillight/brake covers? How about smoked ones with slashes or vents that show a small part of the original red lens? Previously, it was possible to equip, register and assure your golf cart that it is homologated for road traffic as a low-speed vehicle. However, the Michigan State Department (MDOS) announced that it would no longer process assembled vehicle title applications for vehicles manufactured as golf carts and urged law enforcement personnel to reject or reject any request to complete a TR-54 vehicle number and a road equipment inspection for a golf cart. For more information, see the MDOS Web site. Since gopeds are not equipped with the necessary equipment, they cannot be legally driven on the pavement. In addition, they are by definition a motor vehicle and therefore cannot be driven on a sidewalk designed for pedestrians. Question: Is there a certain age or weight that children are legally allowed to ride as passengers on a motorcycle? THE FCC NOTES THAT THE COMMERCIALIZATION OF ROCKY MOUNTAIN RADAR`S SPIRIT II RADAR JAMMER VIOLATES ITS RULES.

Report No.: CI 97-14. by MO&O. Action by: Commission. Adopted on: 4 December 1997.

(FCC #97-404) Media Contact: David Fiske 202-418-0500. CIB contact: Ana J. Curtis at 202-418-1160. Answer: McL 257.706 covers vehicle sirens. Under the circumstances you describe, the installation and use of a siren would be illegal. Question: I have a question about a street turn or “Michigan left.” I know you can turn left in one direction in a bend, but is it illegal to go directly into a driveway through one-way traffic? Answer: A Goped, although not explicitly defined in the Michigan Vehicle Code, falls under the definition of a moped (MCL.257.32b). Mopeds must have certain equipment, such as; a headlight, brake light, seat, horn, silencer and brakes on each wheel to be used legally on the road. In addition, the driver of a moped must be at least 15 years old, have a driver`s license or a driver`s license/driver`s license, and the vehicle must be registered with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and have a valid license plate.

Finally, a person who drives a moped must wear an approved accident helmet if he or she is under 19 years of age. Question: I own a car that was built in 1957 and did not come out of the factory with seat belts. Can I legally drive this vehicle on the road and take my children without a seat belt? Question: Is it legal to use a radar detector in a private vehicle in the state of Michigan? Answer: The problem with the placement of neon lighting in a vehicle is that the vehicle code is very specific to the color of the lamps allowed on a vehicle and the color that can be seen from which direction. For example, the only color legally allowed to appear at the front of a vehicle is white or amber. The only color that can be displayed on the back is red or amber. On the sides, front – yellow or white, back – amber or red. No other color is allowed and if a lamp of approved color is visible from a direction that is not allowed, it cannot be equipped in this way. If the lighting causes or may distract the driver`s visual impairment, such lighting is illegal.

Finally, as with outdoor neon lighting, there is no provision in the Michigan Vehicle Code that allows the use of neon lighting indoors. Ultimately, it will be up to the courts to decide. Answer: Radar detectors are legal for use in passenger cars in the state of Michigan. Question: I am considering equipping my vehicle with neon valve stem lights. Are they legal? Hey OP, if you say they “get drunk and burnout,” call 000. One police officer pointed out that drunk driving (IBO) is applicable EVERYWHERE, that the crime is DRUNK DRIVING when checking a vehicle, and that it is irrelevant whether they are on public or private land. So if you see them drinking, they burnout, call the police and tell them the situation, if they come in and see the driver and test him for a breath test, he`s gone. Answer: If the “pocket motorcycle” has a displacement of 50 cc or less, produces a braking power of 2.0 or less, can reach a maximum speed not exceeding 30 mph and the operator is not obliged/allowed to change gears, it can be legally classified as a moped. The document entitled “Moped Requirements” lists the operating and equipment requirements for these vehicles. Most “pocket bikes” will not meet these requirements and therefore will not be legal for the road. You could always cut his Ty. Oh – legal means! Yes, I would call the police and report them under the Hoon Act.

We tolerated a few months and thought he would be bored soon and would actually have to ride a bike on the roads or a dirt road or whatever, but no. It continued. So we walked to all the houses on my street and the street behind us and found out that just about everyone was fed up with their and just waiting for someone else to do something about it. The law does not cover where children should go, but no matter what the law says, we know that there are safer ways to transport children in a motor vehicle. Statistics consistently show that the back seat is the safest place for all children under the age of 12. Answer: MCL 257.648 says in part: “The driver. Before stopping or turning from a direct line, it is first necessary to ensure that the stop or turn can take place safely and must give a signal if necessary… ». Common sense and state law agree that a signal is required every time you turn, however, there has been a lot of debate about whether this language requires the use of turn signals when you simply change lanes. Ultimately, unless it is dangerous to stop, you should stop when the light turns yellow.

The only exception is if you are preparing for a left turn and are already inside the intersection. You can stop your left turn after stopping traffic in the opposite direction, even if the traffic light turns red. MCL 257.649 requires that a driver approaching an intersection with a traffic control light that does not clearly indicate right-of-way or malfunctions treat the intersection as a four-lane stop by doing the following: Question: I would like to request a list of helmets approved by the state police department. MCL 257.642 gives another direction and partially states: “. On a lane with 4 or more lanes that allows traffic in both directions, a vehicle may be driven in the extreme right lane, except in the case of overtaking and overtaking, but may not cross the axis of the carriageway unless it turns left. Question: Where can I find information about the current law regarding seat belt use? Under UTC, the requirement to know whether there should be a sign prohibiting U-turns is controversial. Some say yes and others say no. The final decision rests with the court concerned. Question: Please let me know the state law, law or directive that describes speed limits on unmarked country roads. It is our understanding that the speed limit on an unmarked rural dirt road is 45 mph and 55 mph on an unmarked rural paved road.

Question: If I have a signed letter from my doctor indicating a medical need for tinted windows, can someone else drive my vehicle if the windows are tinted? The driver heads east on Road A and wants to turn left onto Street C. If the driver enters the curve and stops at the fixed red signal, he cannot drive straight (north) on Road C until the signal turns green. Question: I have been involved in a traffic accident in the past and I need a copy of the report. Where can I get one? Question: I am wondering what requirements must be met for the equipment of the vehicle for a four-wheeled motorcycle. Or what is the law on the manufacture of a 4-wheeled device that can be used on public roads. If the golf cart is not currently titled, registered and insured for use on the road and is not located in one of the towns, villages or municipalities that have approved road traffic, it can only be operated on a road in very limited circumstances if it meets the definition of an ORV according to MCL 324.81101 of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act.
