The proposed bill would amend current statutes by classifying the operation of a motorcycle in certain ways as reckless driving, which is categorized as a class 2 misdemeanor. Specifically, it would make it illegal for a motorcycle operator to overtake and pass in the same lane occupied by another vehicle or to operate a motorcycle between lanes of traffic or adjacent rows of vehicles, unless authorized. This new provision would be inserted as section B in the existing law, which currently outlines the definitions and penalties for reckless driving.

Additionally, the bill would make conforming changes to the existing statute by updating references to subsections and removing outdated language. For instance, it would replace the references to subsection D with E in multiple instances and delete certain subsections (F and H) while renumbering others accordingly. These changes aim to clarify the application of the law and ensure consistency in the legal text.
