or farm machinery which is self-propelled and moves upon the surface
of the earth and which is owned or controlled by him to stand for
any period of time unattended without locking the ignition system
or otherwise rendering said machinery inoperable so as to prevent
any person unauthorized by the owner or individual in control thereof
from starting said machinery.

No driver of any vehicle, including motorcycles,
all-terrain vehicles and bicycles, shall cause, by excessive and unnecessary
