This speed limit applies in a y pubic park or exhibition grounds; If the highway speed limit is greater than 30 miles per hour., the maximum speed permitted for snow vehicle operation is 30 miles per hour. This is also the maximum speed permitted on any public trail; Municipal by-laws may vary speed limits provided signs are erected. Municipalities have the right to pass by-laws regulating, governing or prohibiting the operation of snowmobiles any- where within their boundaries, on or off the highway; The operator of a snowmobile driving on private property is re- quired to stop and give his cor- rect name and address at the re - quest of the owner or occupier of the property; The towing of a cutter, tobog- gan or sled is not permitted, on a roadway or shoulder except to cross at an angle of approximate- ly 90 degrees. Towing is not per- mitted anywhere except, by means of a rigid tow bar; Helmets must now be worn by all snowmobile operators, pas- sengers and persons being towed by a snowmobile, when on the roadway, shoulder or a public trail.

Where an owner gives permission to a club, the permission extends to all members of the club.
