                          March 22, 1995



 TO:     Honorable Clyde Alexander, Chair       IN RE:  House Bill No. 2598
         Committee on Transportation                    By: Kubiak
         House of Representatives
         Austin, Texas






FROM: John Keel, Director

In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on House Bill No.
2598 (Relating to the registration and operation of an all-
terrain vehicle.) this office has determined the following:

The bill would make no appropriation but could provide the legal
basis for an appropriation of funds to implement the provisions
of the bill.

The bill would allow for the registration for use on and
operation of an all-terrain vehicle on a shoulder if the all-
terrain vehicle is equipped with a headlight or a taillight,
which must be lit when the vehicle is operated on a shoulder. The
bill would also prohibit the use of an all-terrain vehicle at
speed greater than 30 miles per hour on public property.


No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The fiscal implication to  units of local government cannot be
determined.
