    interesting the attorneys would take this position that a ridiing lawn mower is a “motor vehicle” when the opposite position is taken when they are filing claims under a homeowners policy. those contracts specifically state that a riding lawn mower (used for the service of the insured premises) is specifically NOT a “motor vehicle”

    I think the court ruled correctly. It was not a motor vehicle in this scenario. I wouldn’t think that this would affect alcohol-related cases (not successfully anyway) since the offender would still be using the mower as a means of transportation. If the thief would have driven away on the mower, perhaps the ruling would be different.

    It shouldn’t take another court decision to affirm the fact that a lawn mower is just that. Just because some jackass attorney wants to manipulate the definition for his own profit doesn’t warrent the court bending over for him. This country and it’s pathetically flawed legal system have made everthing negotiable. We’re all doomed.
