My dad wants me to ride on the back of a motorcycle with him to get to school. My mom is very upset and doesn't want me to. They got divorced when I was 2. I think it would be fun. Can I?

In Arizona, a minor child is not specifically prohibited from riding on the back of a motorcycle with a licensed driver whose motorcycle meets certain requirements. In particular the motorcycle must be designed for a passenger, meaning it must have a passenger seat. Moreover, any passenger under 18 MUST wear a helmet. Riding on the back of a motorcycle can be very dangerous and all necessary safety equipment should always be in working order. In order to read the statutes on motorcycle rules in Arizona please refer to the Arizona Revised Statutes. Begin your reading by looking at Title 28 Transportation, §28-892.
