SNOW MACHINE/ATV LICENSE FOR KIDS

Recommended Posts

BIG SMOKE

Sorry if this is not in the proper forum, but I was curious to find out if anyone knows how my son (12 yrs old) obtains a valid license to drive a snow machine or ATV?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks

Thunder Bay Adventure Trails Snowmobile Club holds training courses for young snowmobilers.  Upon successful completion of the course, the student gets an MTO issued snowmobile operators license.  I do not know of a similar program for ATV's.  For more information on the snowmobile training, send an email to sledman@tbaytel.net

Here is a link to The Motorized Snow Vehicles Act https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/90m44

 

Here is the link to the mto.gov.on info for ATV Operation

Looks like your son can drive and atv off road without a licence till he is 16 e.g. off-road, trails, private property, or Crown Land. I read it to say he can't drive along or cross a "permitted road". I didn't hunt to see what a permitted road was.


Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming - WOW - what a ride!!!

A permitted road is one where ATV traffic is specifically permitted by municipal bylaw.
