Good Afternoon All
> I met with a disabled person recently who is having a problem riding
> his vehicle on public beaches and Public Rights of Way. The vehicle is a
> Quad motorcycle that he rides at a very sedate pace and enables him to get
> out in the country with his wife walking alongside. He has been told it
> is illegal to use this bike on the beaches under a local byelaw. It is
> also illegal to ride on PRoWs unless the vehicle has been specifically
> adapted for a disabled person.
> Can anyone tell me what the minimum "adaptation" is required to make
> his vehicle legal and if their is any exemption for disabled vehicles on
> beaches please?
>
