[QUOTE="2TrakR, post: 1105670, member: 27322"] If you are operating illegally on an open county road, you will not receive a ticket for operating in a closed area - you will get the ticket for whatever violation is actually happening. The road would have to be closed to ORVs to get the "operating in a closed area" ticket. Since the road would not be closed, that ticket would not be issued. Instead a no helmet, no spark arrestor, speeding, reckless, or whatever ticket would be issued. If the road is closed to ORVs, then they normally issue an "operating in a closed area" ticket. They use these tickets as arguments why counties should not open their roads - not because the ORV was ON a county road, but because they were in a "closed area". They imply this closed area was one of the sensitive areas, like a hill climb, marsh, wetland, etc. They (the DNR) do not say "we gave out 50 tickets last year to ORVs that were on county roads". Remember, all of the counties in the UP have all or most of their county roads open to ORVs. Five counties in the LP also have opened most or all of their roads. This legislation will ensure the counties can continue to make such choices and allow other counties to follow suit. [/QUOTE]
