In Wisconsin, an ATV is defined as "engine driven", but a "motor vehicle " is "self propelled". Get this--
The D.O.T. ONLYdeals with non-private vehicles. Your remedy is NOT in the statutes. An operator is NOT the same as a driver. (yes, I have a class A license, CDL)
My company operates the truck, I, drive it.
See that sign at the top of the on-ramp of the freeway that says "pedestrians and other non-motorized traffic prohibited"? The peds are being considered "traffic" (look it up) and it is ALL commercial. Everything. The presumption is that you are commercial. Period. That is all the State deals with. If they are even talking to you, you have entered the Matrix. They have to presume you are in it, or to them, you don't exist. Get educated and read "The Red Amendment" It may help you to get the context of the situation.
