Driver Training
Operating a snowmobile has opened up new opportunities for family recreation during the winter months. The increased popularity of the activity emphasizes the need for the safe operation of these motorized snow vehicles.
The Motorized Snow Vehicle Operator’s Course covers safe operating procedures, legal requirements, first aid and much more so that students can develop good habits and skills to be safe and courteous snowmobile operators.
Students must be at least 12 years of age in order to receive a Motorized Snow Vehicle Operator’s License (click for MTO application).
