ABATE Of Florida – Motorcycle Accident Prevention

At Lowman Law Firm, we’re proactive with helping the motorcyclist community raise awareness about motorcycle safety and motorcycle accidents in Brooksville. We recently mentioned a group called ABATE of Florida. ABATE is a non-profit organization comprised of motorcycle enthusiasts. They promote motorcycle safety, training and political awareness. ABATE is not a club or a gang, and fund their work through toy runs, poker runs, campouts and many other motorcycle-related activities. Lowman Law Firm applauds the efforts of ABATE and their tireless work promoting motorcycle safety and awareness, with one of their goals being lowering the rate of Brooksville motorcycle accidents and fatalities. 

The ABATE of Florida, Inc. Mission Statement – Working To Decrease Brooksville Motorcycle Accidents

• We will lobby and educate the government and general public to promote motorcycling in a safe and positive image.
• The corporation has retained the services of a full time lobbyist.
• It is the duty of the lobbyist to coordinate with the Board of Directors on matters of legislative interest and to put forth these interests to the legislators in Tallahassee.
• The lobbyist works closely with the Legislative Trustee and the state Board of Directors to formulate favorable bills and pursue getting the bills enacted into law.
• The lobbyist is also responsible for finding a willing and suitable sponsor in the Florida House and Senate for the aforementioned bills.

• We will involve ourselves in fund raising to achieve our goals.
• The corporation raises money from memberships and fund raising events at both the state and chapter level.
