The Michigan Senate is expected to take a final vote on legislation to raise registration taxes and safety training fees for motorcyclists.
The bill on Wednesday’s agenda would increase the annual registration fee to $25 — a $2 increase. It would boost initial endorsement fees to $16 from $13.50 and renewals to $7 from $5.
The additional registration fee revenue would go toward an existing motorcycle safety education program, while some of the endorsement fee revenue would fund a new program promoting motorcycle awareness.
Michigan last year increased penalties for operating a motorcycle without the proper safety endorsement.
