Obviously the driver driving too fast in the fast lane caused this accident but it could have been avoided if the truck towing the UTV wasn't camping out in the left lane. What happened to keeping right except to pass?

We have had a lot of people lately affected by financial institutions raising the interest rates on their credit cards and loans... ALMOST MONTLY! If you have a variable interest rate on your machine's bank loan or on anything you hold a balance on, I urge you to start to pull your statements from the last twelve months and check them. If your interest rate keeps going up, call them and complain and ask for a reduction. Yes, they "can" raise your interest rates due to the feds but they do not have to and you can have it reduced.

When working on your street legal UTV/SXS build, REMEMBER who you ultimately have to deal with eventually. The DMV 🤦‍♂️

Powersports Retailers will use any marketing tactics to make a sale using words like "DOT Approved" or "DOT Certified". The DOT does not approve or certify anything. The legislators make laws. The NHSTA sets the standards for those laws. The DOT manages road projects and administers programs related to road safety. Don't believe us? Here is a link. https://www.nhtsa.gov/importing-vehicle/importation-and-certification-faqs

Parts are either DOT compliant or they are not. It is unlawful for anyone to market a product as compliant when it is not. It is not unlawful to market it as DOT approved. Don't be scammed.

A "particular" and popular UTV/SXS Group has started a GoFundMe for legal fees in result of being harassed and ticketed by the police. Our association's stance on this is SIMPLE. THE DRIVERS ARE WRONG. In states without street legal legislation, these UTV/SXS vehicles must be brought up to DOT compliance or they are not road legal. There is no reciprocity for off road vehicles that are made street legal under state law (not federal). Registering it in another state, in your name or a business, and mounting a license plate, DOES NOT automatically declare your UTV/SXS safe and legal. Period. We ask you do not support or give money to any organization or persons that support this. KEEP THE ROADS SAFE AND THE ENTIRE STREET LEGAL COMMUNITY IN A POSITIVE LIGHT.

VIRGINIA IS CHANGING THEIR MINIMUM COVERAGES FOR VEHICLE INSURANCE - PHASING IN STARTS 01/01/2022

For those of you with a street legal plated UTV/SXS from NC, WV, or TN (or another state) who use their machine in Virginia, this is for you. Regardless of your state of residency or state of machine registration, make sure you have the *NEW* minimum insurance coverage for your on-road policy if you plan on traveling on Virginia roads. YOUR OUT OF STATE REGISTRATION DOES NOT OFFER FULL RECIPROCITY like a passenger car. You MUST meet these minimum requirements in Virginia. BE SAFE!

The US Street Legal UTV Association does not only promote doing DOT Compliance builds to do street legal conversions correctly, we also promote SAFETY. The holiday season of 2021 is among us. We are starting to see posts more frequent in other groups of accidents. Alcohol or drug use is usually and always involved. YOU DO NOT NEED ALCOHOL TO HAVE A GOOD TIME WHEN OUT ON THE TRAILS. If you bring it, enjoy it afterwards with friends. BE SAFE AND RESPONSIBLE. **LIKE AND FOLLOW US**

Automakers got lazy with side impact protection so the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety made the side impact test more challenging. Do you think a UTV/SXS would pass? THIS is why they are manufactured for off road use because they would NOT pass. As an individual owner, you can convert your machine to street legal without the required crash testing. However, applying out of state for a small plate, mounting that plate, then calling it street legal is NOT how you do it.

You do not need airbags to convert your UTV/SXS for DOT compliance. However, this picture speaks for the small plate community that feels attaching a small license plate automatically makes their machine street legal and safe. In reality, it doesn't. SAFETY FIRST 🧏

JUST A QUICK REMINDER. This is the US Street Legal UTV Association. We strive to inform and educate the community on the correct laws, rules, procedures, and equipment. We are NOT AFFILIATED with those other groups and pages that tell you to slap on a small plate from a far away state or register it as a motorcycle and you are good to go. I'm really glad we had this talk. 👍
