Friday drivers
Well, it's that time of year again, when a West Virginian's thoughts turn to summer.
House delegates Evans, Boggs, Stalnaker, Azinger, Rick Thompson and Schadler were clearly thinking about it when they introduced H. B. 4307, which amends and reenacts ��7A-10-3a of the Code of West Virginia, 1931.
��7A-10-3a is the section of code which states: Antique motor vehicles or motorcycles may not be used for general transportation but may only be used for: (1) Participation in club activities, exhibits, tours, parades and similar events; (2) The purpose of testing their operation, obtaining repairs or maintenance and transportation to and from events as described in subdivision (1); and (3) Recreational purposes on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays..."
If their bill is accepted��and it's currently in the Transportation and Infrastructure committee, on its way to Judiciary��that language would expand to read: Recreational purposes starting Fridays at four o'clock in the evening through Sundays, and holidays...
The rest of the section would remain unchanged, and in what must be one of the best values in the nation, the annual registration for any antique motor vehicle or motorcycle would remain two dollars.
