SB 185 signed by Governor Schweitzer, Montana first state to allow for medium speed vehicles!
SB 185 was signed today by Governor Schweitzer at 3p.m. on top of a Zenn auto, a electric retro fit of a French car allowed at speeds over 90 km (55mph) in Europe.
The Zenn is currently limited by federal law governing slow moving vehicles at 25 mph, with allowance on streets up to 35mph. With added safety features, SB 185 allows a vehicle with specifications such as the Zenn to go 35mph on road up to 45mpg with a "medium speed electric vehicle" category. SB 185 is the brainchild businessman Don Gompertz of Eco Auto Inc in Bozeman who worked with Senator Hawks and the Montana Department of Justice to bring this bill forward. Montana is the first state to enact this legislation, paving the way for this important conservation measure. Washington state is expected enact similar legislation sometime this week.
