MAINE "Offroad" registration law change

[Ohiobenz]

So this is happening in Maine!!!
It won't take much for them to follow the Colorado move and declare military vehicles as being designed for offroad use....
These Blue states....

“‘Off-road vehicle’ means a motor vehicle that, because of the vehicle’s design and, configuration, original manufacture or original intended use, does not meet the inspection standards of chapter 15, the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s pollutant requirements or the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration’s crash testing standards and that is not a moped or motorcycle.”

Maine is turning fun, capable vehicles into lawn ornaments.

They did this to sandrails, dunebuggies, and kit cars in Texas some years back. We're still fighting it.

It’s crazy.

I'm in Colorado. I sympathize.
Our roads here are ranked as some of the worst in the country, yet, they're making fruitless laws that cut back vehicle registrations. BRILLIANT!

That is a bunch of nonsense. I'm curious what the honest reason is that they are banned. RV's aren't crash tested. Get into an accident with one of them and they disintegrate all over the highway. They are completely unsafe to the occupants and everyone in the debris field.
