Helmet?

[1uglystick]

Was thinking about taking my quad on the ice for the first time. Can you give me the rules about helmets? I've seen a lot of guys without them but read you need them? Can anyone help me out!

Have to wear a helmet, and have to have the orv sticker I believe

[waterwolf42]

Yep, need a helmet and a sticker for sure.  They will write ya if they catch ya.

Helmet and orv sticker.  Sticker is 16.50.  Just bought one for a trip and it expires end of march...bummer

Eye protection too. Sunglasses or safety goggles are sufficient

i dont believe eye protection is a law is it

Was told by sheriff dept it is a law. I wasn't stopped by them but I asked while at the store.

Thanks guys. Is it one person on the quad at a time or could one or 2 more people hop on also?

[wally-eye]

One person "unless" it is a factory made 2 up machine............the y ticket this also.

You guys are killing me thanks again!

you can pull a person in a sled and they do not have to wear a helmet (but recommended)

No orv needed if you keep it on the ice.

[1uglystick]

I already bought the sticker just to be sure. Now I've gotta come up with a helmet or two.

you learn something new every day and as far as the orv my buddy got ticketed for not having one . they told him no need for a trail permit on a sled if you are fishing but said the rules are not the same for an orv sticker so if thats true i cant wait to tell him he will be pissed. can anyone verify this???

i was told by a bait shop owner in lake city michigan that orv sticker is required on ice unless your atv/sled is registered in your home state. i guess in case you sink it they can send you the salvage bill  p.s. he didnt sell licenses so i dont think he was just trying to make a sale
