[QUOTE="2TrakR, post: 1105610, member: 27322"] Most counties, when they open their roads, set a speed limit for the ORVs. This has generally been 25mph. The law enforcement types have reported, and I believe it, that the speeding has decreased when the county opened their roads. This is mainly because Joe Rocket no longer has to run WFO from point to point in fear of being caught. Not everyone is a good citizen, we all know this, but generally and overall it's been VERY GOOD. There will still be the jerk with the loud pipe tearing things up. We've found in places like Ogemaw county, that those jerks are now being reported by the legit ORV Users and subsequently shut down by the proper authorities. Those fellow ORV Users would not have had the opportunity previously to even report the violation since they would not have been on that road - but we both know the jerk+obnoxious pipe WOULD have been on the road regardless. This isn't theory, it's been documented by the counties who opened up in the last couple years. You have a legit concern, it's shared by most of those who are opposed to opening the county roads. In practice, and using Ogemaw county as an example, it's been just the opposite. Direct impact - The CCC Rose City Color Tour would not be happening out of Bentwheel's property this year and last if the roads were not open. TrailFest @ LMC would not need a special permit for unlicensed bikes to run from the JP Lodge to the trail IF that county was open. Same for their Pine Cone run. The CCC Kids Kamp (which you attended) would not have happened, the way it happened, at Wolverine out of the campground they used. [/QUOTE]
