Can-Am Renegade 500 Operator's Manual page 49

If a road usage is allowed in your area, operate your vehicle on paved surfaces
only for short distance and for the only purpose of moving the vehicle from an off-
road usage to another. Always operate your vehicle at low speed (never exceed
65 km/h (40 MPH)) and reduce the speed before making a turn. Always respect
all road traffic laws when operating your vehicle on public roads or streets. If you
have to cross a road, the lead driver should get off his vehicle then observe and
give directions to the other riders. The last person after crossing then assists the
lead driver to cross. Do not travel sidewalks. They are designated for pedestrian
use.
Water can be a unique hazard. If it is too deep the vehicle may "float" and topple.
Check the water depth and current before you attempt to cross any water. Water
should not go above the footrest. Be wary of slippery surfaces such as rocks,
grass, logs, etc., both in the water and on its banks. A loss of traction may occur.
Do not attempt to enter the water at high speed. The water will act as a brake
and could throw you.
Water will affect the braking ability of your vehicle. Make sure you dry the brakes
by applying them several times after the vehicle leaves the water.
Mud or marsh lands may be encountered near water. Be prepared for sudden
"holes" or changes in depth. Similarly so, be watchful of hazards such as rocks,
logs, etc., partially covered by vegetation.
