            House Bill 920 amends the Transportation Code to change the position at which the authorized operator of an all-terrain vehicle must attach a triangular orange flag to the back of the vehicle before driving the vehicle on a public street, road, or highway that is not an interstate or limited-access highway. The bill extends a peace officer's conditional authority to operate an all-terrain vehicle on such a street, road, or highway to another person who provides law enforcement, firefighting, ambulance, medical, or other emergency services and decreases the maximum distance an all-terrain vehicle may be operated under such authority.
