What it does

Existing law regulates the operation of recreational off-highway motor vehicles on lands, other than a highway, that are open and accessible to the public. Existing law generally prohibits a motor vehicle from being driven upon a highway unless it is registered. However, existing law authorizes off-highway motor vehicles that are issued identification plates or devices to cross highways in certain situations, including, among others, a peace officer operating an off-highway motor vehicle in an emergency response situation.
