AMA Programs & Policies

Justice for All
Focusing attention on inadequate sentencing of drivers who seriously injure or kill motorcyclists, and to push for laws with tougher penalties.

Fuel the fund
The AMA has contributed $100,000 toward matching funds to take full advantage of a federal grant for a study into the causes of motorcycle crashes. The industry is also contributing to this important effort. We're asking individual motorcyclists to chip in, too.

AMA Position Statements
Where the AMA stands on voluntary helmet use, excessive noise, rider education and motorcycle access to public lands.

Sound Advice
This document, which addresses the issue of motorcycle sound, is a result of the National Summit on Motorcycle Sound and was crafted with input from all segments of the motorcycling community.

AMA News & Notes
A monthly service compiled and edited by the AMA Government Relations Staff to keep motorcyclists informed of happenings around the world.

AMA Public Service Announcements
The AMA has recorded new public services announcement (PSA) videos with AMA Board of Directors member and actor Perry King. The PSAs discuss impaired riding, excessive exhaust sound, the importance of the proper safety gear, responsible and safe off-road riding, and deliver an important message to drivers to watch out for motorcyclists on the road.
