Wisconsin Snowmobile & Safety

By Joe Redline
Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle has declared that January 9th thru the 15th is the official “Snowmobile Safety Awareness Week.”

According to the State of Wisconsin records, there are over 230,000 snowmobiles registered in the state and they are enjoyed by over 30,000 families all over the state of Wisconsin. Wisconsin has always been a great state for snowmobiling and fun, but safety is a must.

Every year, over 1200 volunteers help to educate and train over 200,000 students on snowmobile safety.

Hey Kids: Alcohol is dangerous on the trails

Of the 25 snowmobile fatalities in the 2003 to 2004 Wisconsin snowmobile season, 12 of the fatalities were due to excess speed and 9 of the 12 consumed alcohol prior to their death. 72% of the total victims had some alcohol in their system.

Men, you’re also at higher risk. 24 of the 25 snowmobile fatalities were MEN. The average age of the victims was 35.2 years old. Lastly, most accidents occurred from 7pm to 3am on Saturday nights.

This snowmobile season, let’s enjoy the fun sport of snowmobiling and with common sense, we can live to ride another year! :-)
