- SxS/UTV laws vary from state, county and townships. Can you get ticketed by mail for a violation that happened months ago from evidence on a You Tube video? Are UTV ordinances for counties/townships easy to find? Let me know what you think.
Common sense, be safe, have fun. Keep the government out of everything. They think it's their responsibility to justify their job.
Loved the video ❤ I'm still in a street legal Volkswagen rail buggy i fallow the laws on road for sure 💯 i do what i want off road with common sense definitely when others are around.
Look, people will never be happy with you driving anything off-road. They will always complain and they will always try to regulate just to control. Not saying some idiots don’t need to be controlled, but that’s a very small percentage.
You just have to keep your head and use common sense. Don’t be rude and taking others safety for granted. Don’t haul ass by hikers, horse riders, other vehicles, campers, etc. don’t go off trail making your own and think of the trail while you’re driving it. Don’t put gigantic holes from your tires. One last thing. DON’T LEAVE YOUR DAMN TRASH. THIS ISN’T YOUR HOUSE WHERE YOU HAVE TRASH EVERYWHERE. TREAT IT BETTER THAN YOUR BOSSES HOUSE.
I live in West Virginia and have never heard that you can't exceed 25 on the trail
In wis, you can run lettered and town roads not numbered roads speed limit is 35 I think trails is the same but some places by houses it's down to 10mph road are if the county is open
I like the idea of one way trails. The orv popularity is really blowing up especially in lake county. I’d feel safer on one way trails even if it meant higher speeds. That’s coming from a guy on a dirt bike that likes to ride the side by side trails every now and then.
Sxs are def more and more popular, lake county is full of them
I too often ride with my son on dirtbikes and have noticed an increase in traffic. All the trails in the LP are packed. Have had to bomb off the trail to not get run over by rzrs. They go fast, tear up the trails, etc. I used to go often to ride down here, now i do not so much anymore. The UP is however different, bigger, and not as packed on the trails.
Also, the DNR have noticed and are sitting off trails to ticket you and or harass you. Have had some bad encounters with them for BS.
I loved the 70's and 80's when people were not Karen's 💯
Must have been an old settlement in the area the lilacs were
In Arkansas in the Ozark national forest If the road is not red you can ride on it and the speed limit is the one you use. You can ride on the highway from one trail head to another up to I think 10 miles. Wenona national forest Its a mess their.
How do they get the rite info to put on the ticket. Info has to be completed
I agree with u on one way loops n speed limits yes like watching yur videos
I have heard many people getting tickets after they posted the videos online. The real thing is, all you have to do is put at the beginning of the video, filmed on a closed or controlled course. They have a very difficult time winning that.
I agree 👍
It’s simple, if it’s not posted that you can’t drive a sxs there, then you’re good.
In NC the speed limits 55
We have wide open and potentially high speed trails so there’s a lot of temptation to hammer down, other states from what I’ve seen on vids are slower more technical type riding
The one way trails would be a good step, the biggest thing is people need to realize it’s not a closed course race track so they need to take into account there are others out there
Pulling off the trail to get out of the way to take a break could go either way because your supposed to “stay on the trail” so if you pull off in a spot others have torn up you could be guilty by default
Good points Gary thanks. Not a race track is so true, but when your out with your buddies joy riding it kind of ends up like a race lol,
@@rondavid461
Very true, it’s easy to get caught up in running with your buddies but at the end of the day if you get a ticket there’s no one to blame but yourself
@@garyhenion9459 Your exactly right Gary 👍
I agree one way would be best but, in some areas, thats just not visible. We all like going fast and I do in the right setting like running the Texas Mile or other race events. As for the trail goes these machines were mainly made to get back to nature and enjoy it. Due to that I think a speed limit of 30 would be plenty and still not kill anyone or anything at that speed with good brakes. Also had two friends that have gotten killed for going fast in the woods!
Two 30mph sxs head on crash would like hitting a tree at 60mph
I know where some public trails are that no one ever go's to, honestly I think DNR has forgotten about them cause if it wasn't for me and my friends the place would be overgrown and not usable. We cut up and no one has ever bothered us.
Good to hear someone isn’t being bothered 👍
Funny they don’t touch shop lifters but mess with you sad👎👎‼️
Did you have a SMV sign on it
Get your UTV state licensed then you can travel posted highway speeds like a car.
12:11 BS! He’s not making sure everyone safe. Did he pull you over for being unsafe? No, he pulled you over to see if he can give you a ticket to collect money.
If WE need to know the laws, so should the enforcers. Why are we required to pay for a manual of those laws? Today, even the CA vehicle code book requires a payment to look up laws. So, I can’t learn the laws because I have to buy them.
Just swap your sxs over to leagally ride on the road and your allset to go anywhere.road or trails
I think there should be speed limits under specific conditions such as if there is danger of hitting someone, an animal or causing any other danger to a living entity or property.
Or maybe one way traffic would be good
You hug trees don't you? People speed in their cars every day you think laws are going to prevent anyone from speeding ? Nope no more than outlawing guns then only outlaws will have guns people's logic kills me 😂
In my state (AZ), there is idian land, forset service land, BLM land and state trust land, road that require street legal registration and trails that only need an OHV decal. And each with its own rules and regulations. Easy to violate a rule or regulation just by crossing the boundary from one to the other. On trust land, we can't stop for ANY reason (as the law reads) unless eash person in our party has a $15 recreational permit ($20 for a family of four), not even to take a picture or a leak. I know in NYS (and maybe some othrers) there are one way trails, two way trails and "no way" permanently closed trails
These moron cops should just leave people Is alone and go Chase real criminals God-bless everyone
where this is, he is the most criminal youll find there
Ya that's ridiculous IMO. Getting ticket from a video. We all work hard pay alot to get away from the bullshit. Understand not everyone out to break laws. Can't wait to pick my buggy up tomorrow but guess I need a rule book lol
There’s rules for everything we do, even peeing in the woods probably lmao 🤣 enjoy your new machine 👍
Lake County is bad for Cops and DNR ... Nice trails but you got to be good little boys.
Should be the same as city laws like you can't get I trouble if they didn't see it personally , they can't do anything
I agree ☝️ 👍
Getting tickets sucks the dirt dudes some fewer emailed the DNR that’s how they got busted which really sucks we took some of our videos down
It does suck Greg, guess we need to watch what we put in our vids lol. Land of the free unless you make utv content 😂😎
@@rondavid461 Exactly
We’re are those trails located
They were county roads in Oceana county Michigan . Thanks for watching
As far as I know there are no speed limits in Crawford County, Michigan (YET) offroad trails UNLESS there's Speed Limit Signs. I had my Rzr converted to a Michigan "Assembled Pickup". I am highway legal anywhere in Michigan except the INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS.
I was just recently pulled over by the same DNR Officer. For the same reason LOL. He’s a very cool guy
Small world lol
i keep seeing these kinda videos i just wont go out there. i dont need a twit bothering me
Double standards are not good. The laws are the law. Would you drive your truck down the road at 40- 50 mph just because you can legally probably not. If you invite the law enforcement in, they will be there. It's called law enforcement. If they see your speedometer and it's 40- 50 mph it's called self incriminating. Be smart.
40 on tight trails
If posting vid of yourself disobeying the law results in fine, then video should be sole reason to jail someone for trespassing on your property.
I think the law enforcement is so thirsty for money and it shows when they watch videos to incriminate people 💯
Do you ever attend planning meetings with the DNR or WATVA? Or call your representatives in Madison when there is an important vote concerning riding? Or do you just complain about it on RUclips? So many love to bitch and complain, but so few have enough ambition to do anything to help themselves.
Policing RUclips vids for traffic violations is a bunch of big brother bs! Wheres the fun/challenge for the “authorities” in that 😆?? Chances are if you can afford a 20-60k sxs you are a hard working possibly even upstanding citizen who pays a shit ton of taxes already and needs a release from the monotony of the whole damn system! One way trail systems sound ok on paper, but we all know someones gonna f it up with a good game of chicken 🐓. I didn’t buy my maverick so that I had to ride a certain direction deemed ok by butt hurt dweeby local politicians! Ride with respect and common sense, don’t tear too much shit up don’t go screaming passed someones house. Blur ur speedo if you’re gonna rip and if you get a letter in the mail send it to your lawyer 😉 rant complete…
Adam, i could not of summed it up better myself! thanks bro ..
Do not show speedometer and on road don't be reckless. Don't do the crime if you can't do the time😅😅
Don’t film. What happens in the woods stays in the woods.
👍 yep
