A. All-terrain vehicles are subject to a safety inspection by the police department at the time of registration and at any other time when in the opinion of a police officer the all-terrain vehicle is being operated in violation of the safety provisions of Title 28 of the Alaska Statutes, Title 13 of the Alaska Administrative Code, or the safety provisions of this chapter. At the time of registration, an all-terrain vehicle that is determined to be unsafe after inspection shall not be registered until such time as the vehicle is determined by the police department to be safe for operation.
B. No person may operate an all-terrain vehicle after being directed to have it repaired or adjusted, except as may be necessary to return the vehicle to the residence or place of business of the owner or operator or to a place of repair, until the vehicle and its equipment have been placed in proper repair and adjustment. This section does not preclude the impounding of a vehicle under AS 28.35.210, if in the officer's opinion the vehicle is so defective or unsafe as to create a hazard if operated on the public streets or roadways of the City of King Cove (13 AAC 06.020(b)).
