an increased risk of loss of control, which could result in serious injury

Excessive Speed
WARNING
High speed driving, especially at night, could result in serious
personal injury or death. Always reduce speed when driving at
night or in inclement weather.
Observe all state and local laws governing snowmobile operation.
They’ve been established for your protection.
Always be alert and pay attention to the trail ahead. Multiplying speed
(MPH) by 1.5 will equal the approximate number of feet per second
your machine travels. If your speed is 40 MPH, your machine is
traveling about 60 feet per second. If you look back for only two
seconds, your machine will travel about 120 feet. If your speed is 60
MPH, your machine will travel about 180 feet in two seconds.
Traveling at night requires extra caution. Check headlight and taillight
to ensure proper operation, and don’t over-drive your headlight beam.
Always be able to bring your machine to a stop in the distance
illuminated by the headlight.
