The responsible Off Highway Vehicles Bill (SF 850) has a good chance of passing with a little more push. Please contact your representatives if you have the time and agree with this legislation. (It essentially designates areas for OHV use, instead of the current system which infers they are permitted anywhere unless otherwise stated).
