2002 Senate Bill 1016

House Roll Call 929: Passed

To define and allow on public sidewalks "electric personal assistive mobility devices" (the "Segway Human Transporter"). The bill would allow local governments to regulate but not ban the use of the device on sidewalks, except they could ban them on a "designated trail" in their downtown or central business district, in a historical district, or on a pedestrian walkway adjacent to a waterfront. The Department of Natural Resources could ban them on land under its control, the devices would be prohibited on Mackinac Island.
