New York Passes Lupardo-Kennedy Autocycle Bill Allowing Three-Wheeled Vehicles to be Operated without a Motorcycle License
03 Março 2022 - 2:26PM
Arcimoto, Inc.® (NASDAQ: FUV), makers of rightsized, outrageously
fun, ultra-efficient electric vehicles for moving people and stuff,
today announced that drivers of Arcimoto Fun Utility Vehicles in
New York will no longer need to have a motorcycle license under
legislation signed by Governor Kathy Hochul. The bill,
A7192A/S6335, sponsored by Assemblywoman Donna Lupardo and Senator
Tim Kennedy, brings New York State in line with other states that
do not require a motorcycle license to operate an autocycle such as
those built by Arcimoto.
"Excelsior!” said Mark Frohnmayer, CEO and Founder, Arcimoto.
“We applaud the great state of New York for passing this important
legislation. New York continues to show leadership pushing for
reforms to address the climate crisis we face, and allowing their
constituents to more easily make sustainable transportation choices
that don’t depend on imported fossil fuels. We commend Governor
Kathy Hochul, State Senator Tim Kennedy, and Assemblymember Donna
Lupardo for leading the charge on this pragmatic change."
Assemblywoman Donna Lupardo said, “We have worked on this bill
for a number of years in order to bring it across the finish line.
This will open up the autocycle market to a much wider customer
base. Seniors, in particular, wanted to have this option but
questioned their ability to obtain a motorcycle license. Thank you
to Senator Kennedy for his partnership and to Governor Hochul for
her support.”
Senator Tim Kennedy, Chair of the Senate Transportation
Committee said, "Through this legislation, we're bringing New York
State in line with many other states across the nation, while
simultaneously strengthening accessibility for autocycle drivers
and investing in sustainable models of transportation. I'm proud to
champion this alongside Assemblymember Lupardo, and thank Governor
Hochul for making this a priority and signing this bill into
law."
