HARRISBURG
(Dauphin Co.) — The
state Senate has
approved legislation to
protect farms and
privately-owned lands
from vehicle-related
crimes, according to
Senator Edward
Helfrick.
Helfrick said he sup
ported Senate Bill 1272
on behalf of area far
mers, who are exasper
ated with trespassers
who joyride over valu
able farmlands, damag
ing crops.
“Their destructive
behavior will be harshly
punished under this
legislation,” said
Helfrick.
Under the bill, any
one who operates a veh
icles on property with
out the permission of
the owner will be sub
ject to stiff fines and
other penalties.
For the first offense,
the driver will receive a
$5OO fine. For the sec
ond and subsequent
offenses, the driver will
receive a $l,OOO fine
and have his or her driv
er’ s license suspended
for six months. If the
individual has not
reached legal driving
age, the suspension will
go into effect when the
license is obtained.
Helfrick added that
the bill covers trespass
by snowmobiles and
ATVs.
Helfrick said the bill
is also in the best inter
est of sportsmen, who
often lose access to
hunting lands when
frustrated farmers close
recreational acreage to
everyone.
“Driving for fun over
valuable farmlands is a
crime and should be
treated as such,” said
Helfrick. “It takes
money directly from the
pockets of farmers.”
The bill now goes to
the House of Represen-
Holstein Association Convention Set
Also starting at 1 p.m., the PSU
Department of Agriculture is to
present a display on agriculture
and education.
