Summary

The bill amends the Vehicle Code so anyone operating a bicycle or electric bike on a road or a Class I bikeway must sit on a fixed seat, and any passenger must sit on a separate seat that meets safety rules for young or light riders. These seat rules become enforceable infractions, and the state will not reimburse local agencies for any costs tied to the change.
