In Russia proposed to equate pit bikes to motorcycles. This initiative was made by the head of the Presidential Council for the Development of Civil Society and Human Rights. According to him, these vehicles are practically no different from motorcycles, and the difference in their status is only a game of terms.

Pitbikes are small light motorcycles, usually designed for off-road or sports tracks. Teenagers often use them, putting their lives in danger. To solve the problem, it is necessary to amend the legislation and establish the same requirements for pitbikes as for motorcycles.

The initiative aims to improve road safety. If the amendments are adopted, Pitbike owners will have to comply with additional rules. Discussion is ongoing.
