Florida H0101 regulates the operation of utility terrain vehicles (UTVs) on certain roadways and establishes licensing requirements.

Florida H0101 creates a new section in Florida Statutes to define terms and regulate the operation of utility terrain vehicles (UTVs). The bill allows UTVs to be operated during all hours and on specific roadways, including two-lane county roads and municipal streets with speed limits under 55 miles per hour. It also permits UTVs to cross the State Highway System at a 90-degree angle. Local governments can enact more restrictive ordinances and prohibit UTV operation if deemed unsafe. The Department of Transportation can also prohibit UTV use for safety reasons.
