I understand your point about noise, etc. I don't suffer from snowmobiles, but from a similar problem, jetskis on the water in the summer. The ugly noise and stupid operation of the vehicles seems to be much the same.

I think if we could end rude behavior we could repeal 90% of the laws off the books in this country.

Nothing more enjoyable than a nightime sleigh ride under a moon, after an hour of harnessing, rigging, hot cocoa making in the thermos, baby seat strapping, bell adorning, to be trotting to the bellowing breath of a pair of horses and RROAARRRR......leaping the culvert ten feet in front of you on your own property leaps one, two, three, snowmobiles jumping the ditches at 50mph completely unaware of your presence. An hour later after returning home out of fear for your life on your own property, some guy is knocking on your door at midnight asking where he is and do you have any spare gas?

I usually get out the tractor, lift it with the pallet forks, bring it to the house, drive the guy home and let him come back the next day, sober.

Darwin has so much work to do in such little time.
