Governor Bryant signed the law on " AUTOCYCLES" , Mississippi will be exempt for helmets and motorcycle license for use in " Autocycles ". For once Mississippi is not the last to get inline with the rest of the world.
Latest news I have received is Mississippi House passed HB# 111 and sent to Senate. Senate Bill# 2225 and House Bill# 111. Boys lets get it together. House member Massengill and Senator Parker are sponsors of these Bills. No helmet, no motorcycle endorsement seat belt required, sounds...
. Mississippi Senate has passed Bill#2225 and sent it to the House. Hope new vehicle law is on the way for AUTOCYCLES. Feburary 5, 2015. NOT motorcycle license, NO helmet, SEAT BELTS required.
Take it slow and careful.Tucker in 1947 promised things and did not deliver. He won the case against him but used all his money on court cost and lawyer's fees.
Jeff, I'm a Hattiesburg fan; we have got to get on the state about license and helmet laws. The idea of testing on motorcycles ( I don't have OR want) and wearing a helmet inside a vehicle is stupid.
IT may be readable but it is still UGLY. Gauges for OIL pressure, WATER temperature, are the BLOOD of an engine; SPEED and FUEL level round out needed gauges.
I am a single old man in Mississippi with family in Pa., Tn.,and Ar.. I hope to wear out three sets of tires before I die visiting everyone and everything I can. MAYBE 5.
As a older man,I can see why Elio is slow about what it releases. One of the main things that brought down Tucker in1947 was failure to produce what he promised. Tucker had to back off so they called him a fraud. Take it slow and produce a viable and reliable vehicle.
Sure hope there is a box or something for registration , insurance and etc. I expect to be stopped many times because of Elio's rarity, and Mississippi's helmet law. I have written to my legislatures and HOPE the law will change soon. Joshua you may have a problem in North Carolina like me.
I hope they are careful with the "Cat" placement. Many people don't remember that the Pontiac Fiero had a fire problem at first because that "Cat" was placed under the engine; a shield later corrected that problem.
Welcome Gibbster. Hope to see you on the road soon( without a helmet); we have to work on that. This goofy old man from Hattiesburg plans to wear the wheels off my Elio.
On the prototype there are no turn lights or running lights on the fenders. This addition would help define the width of our Eloi vehicle. Hate to mention it but the CanAm spyder has them and at night this is a benefit to oncoming drivers.
