Laws
Can I park on the street overnight? Overnight parking
is not allowed on Village streets from 2:00 a.m. until 6:00 a.m. from December
1st through April 1st.
Can I
operate a motorized scooter on the road? Generally, no. You
can operate a "Segway" type vehicle (side by side tires, self balancing) on both
the street and sidewalks, but other types of motorized scooters are illegal to
operate.
Do I have to display both license plates on my
vehicle? If your vehicle was
issued two plates originally, both must be displayed. This would include all
automobiles, vans, SUVs and light trucks.
Can I add colored lights to my vehicle? Yes... if they are
the right color. Vehicles can only show white or amber light to the front and
red or amber light to the rear. Other colors, such as blue or green, cannot be
displayed at all.
Do I
need a special license to operate a Moped? Generally, anyone
with a valid drivers license may operate a moped. However, it is not legal to
operate a moped with only a valid instruction permit. You may obtain a special
restricted license, valid only for the type of vehicle on which you take the
road test. Your nearest drivers license examination station can give you
details.
Can I have a passenger on a Moped? No. Mopeds are
"driver only" vehicles, even if they are equipped with seats and foot pegs for a
passenger.
Do Police have to allow 5 miles over the speed
limit before they can write a ticket? No. The speed
"limit" is the fastest you can legally go. Anything over that is illegal. The
reason you don't get a ticket when going a few miles an hour over the limit is
simply because the Police are such nice people, not because they can't.
Is it illegal to drive barefooted? No, in fact, on
lengthy trips, it is recommended to take off your shoes once in a while while
driving to help keep yourself alert.
Do cops really eat donuts? They prefer steak,
they just can't afford it.
