Update Wisconsin Legislative Update Wisconsin The group consisted of Dwight,Joe,Patty,Dean,Ellen,Bill,Dylan,Dave,Julian and myself. We were given the opportunity to meet with our Representatives from the Assembly and Senate. The topics that were discussed includes amending parts of recently passed legislation that was intended to enhance penalties for right of way violations. One of the other concerns that was brought up relates to the possibility of Federal Government blackmailing the states to push mandatory helmet laws by withholding Federal funds.During our talks we also found out that Wisconsin is looking at and has it in the budget for the photocop electronic devices to snap pictures of anyone proceeding through a red light. If you remember ABATE of Wisconsin got act 466 put into law allowing a motorcycle to proceed through a sensor activated red light after 45 seconds. This will undoubtedly create a hassle for us as motorcyclist. I would like to thank everyone
who attended Lobby Day from the SCVR and i am already looking
forward to next year.Thanks to Dylan for a great job driving
the
bus
through the blizzard. Contact Mike Deavey
at mdeavey@hotmail.com with any questions or if you are interested
in
attending with me. Mike Deavey
