Amend the bill in section 1 by striking out all of paragraph G (page 1, lines 4 to 14 in L.D.) and inserting the following:
summary
Current law provides that a law enforcement officer may stop an all-terrain vehicle to ascertain whether a violation of the law has occurred if the law enforcement officer has a reasonable and articulable suspicion to believe that a violation of the law has taken place. This amendment allows a law enforcement officer to stop an all-terrain vehicle operated on privately owned property without a reasonable and articulable suspicion to believe a violation of the law has occurred when the private property owner has affirmatively requested that a law enforcement officer make such a stop on that owner's private land.
