Starting July 1, 2026, mini-motorcycles — small motorized bikes with a seat less than 24 inches from the ground — will be treated the same as full-size motorcycles under Utah law, meaning they must be registered, insured, and operated only by someone with a valid motorcycle license. The bill also creates a new law making it illegal for a parent or guardian to knowingly allow a child to violate traffic safety rules while operating a motorcycle or similar vehicle, with penalties escalating from a class C misdemeanor to a class B misdemeanor for repeat offenses. Law enforcement officers gain the authority to impound motorcycles involved in these violations, with a $50 impound fee directed to Utah's Brain and Spinal Cord Injury Fund.
