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,

awareness.   Helmet Exemption for ATV Users

beach need not wear a helmet meeting USDOT
motorcycle helmet standards.  Enhanced
