The paper raises the problem of normative legal reg-ulation of the operation of a new type of vehicles, such as pit bikes. The authors point out the need to improve administrative legislation related to the recognition of a pit bike as a vehicle subject to man-datory state registration. Taking into account the technical characteristics of the pit bike, the authors propose to classify this vehicle into the following categories: M – mopeds; A – motorcycles or subcat-egories A1 – motorcycles with an internal combus-tion engine displacement not exceeding 125 cubic centimeters and a maximum power not exceeding 11 kilowatts. In order to implement the basic principle of road safety, associated with the priority of the life and health of citizens, it is proposed to introduce administrative responsibility for the operation of pit bikes on public roads, including those without a special right, in a state of intoxication and by under-age citizens under the age of 16 years.
