The law will not allow Toy R Us to become an adult hobby shop or a 90cc quad etc to be sold as adult pocket whatevers. It has a very wide scope as it includes anything what a reasonable person would think was intended for a child under 12. Rather ambiguous and crapy. I will build my children a motorcycle that fits them if I have to, but my time is valuable and I would rather buy one designed for them. My wife is a toxicologist and was also shocked with the poorly thought out and miserably executed law. I agree that we all need to flood DC with letters and phone calls. Please. Good luck to all. Peace. Just a clarification. The law will not allow Toy R Us to become an adult hobby shop or a 90cc quad etc to be sold as adult pocket whatevers.

Maybe instead of giving President Obama some bikes, give them to his kids.... oh, wait I’m an outsider looking in, but this seems so absurd.

Can you even use that as an argument to defend a porely written law, about some toxic substance in cerain products? I dont see the connection... “90% of the youth fatalities and injuries on motorcycles occur when kids ride adult vehicles.”

She is not going seek penaties from anyone during the 1 year period, and she asked the State AG's to ignor anyone selling products to do the same, because of the danger of kids using large ATV's. She gets it, I read the law, there is no wiggle room. Now is the time to flood Congress & Senate with letters, WITH NO LET UP. Make this your years goal to hound your elected officials. Drive them nuts with LETTERS, NOT EMAILS. EVERY LETTER HAS TO BE OPENED AND ANSWERED. Our goal should be one million letters. That's only 5 per rider in the USA. It's time to really get organized!
