Establishes liability framework for motorized off-road activities in Ohio.
Ohio HB942 establishes a liability framework for motorized off-road activities, defining terms such as "motorized off-road vehicle" and "motorized off-road activity." It specifies that participants assume inherent risks and that sponsors are generally not liable for harm unless caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct. Minors must have a signed waiver from a parent or guardian acknowledging the risks. The bill also mandates safety briefings for participants and outlines conditions under which liability may be limited or not.
