Pell Pushes Snowmobile Safety Bill Nationwide Standards
Senator Claiborne Pell introduces a bill to set nationwide snowmobile safety rules for manufacture and use on federal lands. The measure requires helmets, caps speeds at ten mph, bans firearms on such lands, limits operation near wilderness and historic sites, and empowers the CPSC to mandate mufflers and automatic idle return. Pell cites rising injuries and deaths from snowmobile accidents and high noise impacting recreation.
