Put the number 27-52-206 in the search box to see the actual law on the Arkansas government website. You might want to print a copy of this if you intend to practice this. Some law officers may not be aware of this “biker-friendly” law J

 

SICK.

thats always good for when youve been doing wheelies and messin around, and you dont want the cars you passed to come up behind you.

 

so true...

 

We have a lot of those stop lights here, I've just gotten used to making right turns and then a uturn up the street.

 

yeah that happens to me all the time. ill sit at a stop light for 5 minutes and wind up blowin it cuz it wont turn green.

 

i dont even know if thats legal here, but everyone does it anyways if your catious cops dont mind, i've never had a problem with the fuzz because of that

 

Good law.
