Ind. Law - The Indiana State Police is NOT seeking to challenge the validity of the state golf cart law
Updating this ILB entry from earlier today, a knowledgeable reader has sent a note stating:
The Indiana State Police is NOT seeking to challenge the validity of the state golf cart law. The ISP did not take a position on the bill during the session.I'm told there is one possible reason for the confusion:
When the bill legalizing golf carts passed, LSA inadvertantly left out the language barring golf carts from highways unless authorized by town ordinance. As a result, the actual language of HEA 1483 did not match the LSA-provided digest. ISP asked for corrective language in the budget, which basically added IC 9-21-8-57, the statute barring golf carts on highways unless permitted by ordinance.The ILB mentioned that language in this June 23rd ILB entry headed "What's in the Senate budget?"
