Legislation sponsored by Sen. Devlin Robinson (R-37) to allow doorless driving in Pennsylvania for vehicles such as Jeeps and Broncos was signed into law today.

Senate Bill 298, now Act 61 of 2024, adheres to logistical and safety standards important to residents and law enforcement. The new law requires side view mirrors when doors are removed and upholds seatbelt protections for minors.

"Today marks a significant milestone as the governor has signed Senate Bill 298 into law," said Robinson. "This legislation brings Pennsylvania in line with the rest of the country regarding doorless driving. I am deeply thankful for the bipartisan support from my colleagues in both chambers. This new law not only grants vehicle owners greater freedom and enjoyment but also upholds the essential safety standards. It’s a victory for both adventure enthusiasts and those who prioritize safety."

Drivers will be able to remove doors beginning mid-September.
