ΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύ According to Staff Sgt. Darren Simons of the Carlyle detachment, RCMP members are dealing with increasing numbers of operators of all-terrain vehicles, side-by-sides, motorcycles -and even golf carts - who are not obeying provincial statutes and often, not wearing helmets and/or protective eyewear.
ΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύ βThis week, members dealt with a 13-year-old driving a golf cart in Carlyle. There were three people in the cart and golf carts are designed for two people,β says Staff Sgt. Simons. βThe driver of this golf cart could have been charged with operating a motor vehicle without a driver's licence and operating an uninsured vehicle, but members chose to educate this young person instead.β
ΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύ βLocal bylaws do not supersede provincial statutes,β he adds. βBut the overriding concern here is preventing a life-altering or life-ending tragedy.β ΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύ
ΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύ βI'd also like to remind the operators of these vehicles how important it is to protect their head(s) and their vision,β says Simons. βWe're seeing a lot of people who aren't wearing proper eye protection and helmets and it's such a simple - but important - thing for them to do in order to preventΜύ an injury or worse.β
