18 General Driving Techniques
l
Respect the rights, skills and limitations of others by keeping a
safe distance and yielding the right of way to other riders.
l
When driving off-road, stay to the right of the trail especially
around corners and over hills, do not zigzag, and do not assume
no other vehicles are on the trail.
l
Check the local laws where you plan to ride. The ROXOR may be
prohibited from sharing snowmobile trails, cross country ski
trails, equestrian trails, hiking trails, mountain bike trails or other
public parks and trails.
l
Always be prepared to stop quickly and/or pull off the side of the
trail if another vehicle appears in front of you.
l
Always tell someone where you are planning to go and when
they should expect you back.
l
Always consider bringing additional clothes, tools, emergency
equipment and a first aid kit, and checking the local weather
report.
l
Find out where you can get additional fuel.
When group riding, be aware that others in your group
may not have safety equipment, like turn signals or brake lights.
Always keep a safe distance between vehicles.
18.14 Environment
l
Always practice the "Leave no Trace" and “Tread Lightly!®” prin-
ciples and ethics of outdoor conservation. Always respect nature
and the rights of others to enjoy it.

private land, respect property lines, crops and farm animals.
l
Never drive your ROXOR in environmentally sensitive areas,
through wetlands, muskeg or tall grass and do not pollute rivers,
streams and lakes.

exhaustion. In many areas this activity is illegal.

and observe quietly from a distance.
l
The ROXOR can develop exhaust and/or other engine hot spots
on long rides, debris build up in these areas resulting in wildfires
if this debris ignites and falls off. Periodically check these areas
