I don't know if any are aware of this , but TN has some of the most restrictive driving laws around , and they got even harsher about a year or two ago ..there seems to be lots of confusion over this , here is what me and my friend found out.
now TN law states that any motor vehicle that is driven on the road and some off road vehicles not driven on the road must have proper tags and registration , this includes , motorized bicycles , mopeds , scooters ,e-bikes , quads ,golf carts and tractors , and only excludes police and state personnel.... so this means that state vehicles of all the above and the police departments new quads and e-bikes don't need a tag ....
also too that the above mentioned including a regular bicycle are not allowed on any 4 lane divided highway { that means with a median in the middle like highway 411 }, a interstate system ,or defense road.
if its under 50 cc's or under you must have a valid DL , if it is over 50 cc's you must have a motorcycle license,
all motor vehicles operated on the road must have liability insurance for $150,000 worth of coverage .
any bike including motorized ,if operated at night must have head and tail lights .
all bikes including motorized must follow and obey the traffic laws of the state , excluding state and police of course , this includes , no riding on the side walk , riding with the flow of traffic , observing traffic lights and stop signs .
Did i forget anything ?
soon it looks like in this state you won't be able to walk down the road without proper registration .
