Oklahoma City_Press Release_A resolution urging the federal government to amend regulations banning the sale of youth all-terrain vehicles and motorcycles has been passed by the Oklahoma House of Representatives.

House Resolution 1024, by state Reps. Ken Luttrell and Rex Duncan, urges the federal Consumer Product Safety Commission to provide a waiver or exclusion for youth all-terrain vehicles and motorcycles from toy lead-limit requirements.

According to Luttrell, the 2008 federal lead regulations, intended to apply to children’s toys, have been applied to component parts of youth vehicles, such as the engine, brakes, battery and other parts – making the vehicles noncompliant.

“The lead regulations do not make any sense in this situation,” noted Luttrell, D-Ponca City. “I don’t think anyone is going to lick a motorcycle engine and get lead poisoning.”
