  1. What has CBA/ABATE Done for You Lately? 2011 Accomplishments: Right-of-Way Protection for Motorcyclists: CBA/ABATE of NC racked up a major victory in the 2011 Session with the enactment of  House Bill 113 (SL2011-361), a bill that significantly increases the penalties for crowding a motorcyclist out of his/her lane or causing injury to the motorcyclist.  This bill was introduced at the request of and was actively supported by CBA/ABATE. No More Motorcycle-Only Checkpoints: CBA/ABATE scored another major victory with the enactment of House Bill 381 (SL2011-216), legislation that prevents law enforcement agencies from establishing patterns for vehicle stops at checking stations based on a particular type of vehicle.  This bill was actively supported by CBA/ABATE of NC and is a major victory in the battle to protect motorcyclists from discriminatory profiling by law enforcement agencies.  Expansion of Motorcycle Safety Awareness Training -  At the request of CBA/ABATE of NC, House Bill 200, enacted as SL2011-145, included a provision that requires drivers education instruction to include at least one hour of motorcycle safety awareness.   Helmet Exemption for ATV Users: CBA/ABATE of NC successfully supported H 407, enacted as SL2011-68 - providing that persons who are 18 years of age or older operating an ATV off a public street or highway and those who are at least 16 years of age operating an ATV on the beach need not wear a helmet meeting USDOT motorcycle helmet standards.  Enhanced Motorcycle Awareness - CBA/ABATE successfully supported the use of DOT electronic message signs (Amber Alert) to deliver motorcycle awareness messages.
