  We analize a possible explanation of the pulsar motions in terms of resonant
neutrino transitions induced by a violation of the equivalence principle (VEP).
Our approach, based on a parametrized post-Newtonian (PPN) expansion, shows
that VEP effects give rise to highly directional contributions to the neutrino
oscillation length. These terms induce anisotropies in the linear and angular
momentum of the emitted neutrinos, which can account for both the observed
translational and rotational pulsar motions. The violation needed to produce
the actual motions is completely compatible with the existing bounds.
