vehicle to topple. Be extremely careful, go more
slowly and check the passenger frequently. Keep a
watchful eye on your passenger while riding.
Braking ability and steering control are reduced when
riding with a passenger. Decrease speed and allow
extra space to maneuver.
Riding Alone
Venturing out alone with your snowmobile could also
be hazardous. You could run out of power, have an
accident or damage your snowmobile. Remember,
your snowmobile is capable of traveling further in half
an hour than you may be able to walk in a day. Use
the "buddy system." Always ride with a friend or
member of your snowmobile club. Even then, tell
someone where you are going and the approximate
time you plan to return.

Riding in a Group
Before starting out, designate a "trail boss" to lead
the party and another person to follow-up at the end
of the party. Ensure that all members of the party are
aware of the proposed route and destination. When
riding with others, limit your abilities to the experi-
ence of others. Never overtake the trail boss or, for
that matter, any other snowmobile. Use down-the-line
hand signals to indicate hazards or intent of direction
change. It's important to keep a safe distance
between each snowmobile but each one behind the
leader should know the position of the machine
ahead.
