Governor John Bel Edwards Signs Anti-elio Legislation

[Elio Amazed]

Here's a thought... or maybe just a notion. Wouldn't it be great if Tesla would make a deal with Elio to partner up. Tesla could finance the production of the Elios and maybe someday there could even be an electric Elio.

No.

BUT THE ELIO IS AN AUTOCYCLE THAT IS SUBJECT TO MOTORCYCLE LAWS .
THE LAW IN QUESTION HERE IS FOR AUTOMOBILES .

I didn't see anything in the bill mentioning "Automobiles". It talks about "motor vehicles"! And I believe the Elio IS a motor vehicle.

I COULD BE WRONG , BUT I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGH THE WORD "AUTO" IS SHORT FOR AUTOMOBILE

"Governor John Bel Edwards signed a bill into law on Tuesday that tightens up restrictions on
auto manufacturers selling directly to consumers, like the current Elio Motors business model calls for. "

Statements announcing a bill carry no weight. Read the bill itself. It talks about "motor vehicles". The words "Auto" or "Automobile" are not mentioned.
