I literally have no reason to be interested in this issue, but my wife has seen an interesting debate on Facebook, so I started to research the issue.
As far as I can determine, all the seat belt and car seat laws in Georgia do not seem to apply to motorcycles. On this Facebook page, there is a former LEO is citing the car seat law, but I cannot find any information about motorcycles. I suspect that this is an oversight by the legislature, but even the Governor's Office of Highway Safety does not mention motorcycles and children at all (as either prohibited or allowed).
I figured someone on here might know more about the issue. In other words, could a child under 8 ride as a passenger on a motorcycle?
