Description
Trail Activity; immunity. Provides that a person who invites the public onto his land for the purpose of riding ATVs on a trail, whether for profit or not, is immune for simple negligence should an injury result from the same. The language very closely tracks the language from the Equine Activity Liability Act passed by the General Assembly in 1991. Read the Bill »
