Snowmobiling on residential road?

[longislander]

The Caveat is in "public way".

The Select Boards do not not have jurisdiction on "state" roads, as opposed to "town" roads.

Neither, have jurisdiction on private roads.

Judging from the comment about neighborhood and summer homes, if the road is part of an Association (e.g., an HOA) the elected Directors of that Association have the jurisdiction to make rules for the road, presuming the owners have not voted otherwise.

I phoned the Wolfeboro police (just to ask if this was permitted) who told me that I don't live in Wolfeboro. Funny, my mailing address is Wolfeboro and my Deed, Title Insurance all say Wolfeboro.
I hope I don't have an emergency because they pretty much told me they won't come to my address.
I found my HOA's website and it says that snowmobiles must yield to pedestrians and not go over 35mph or go past 11:00 PM. They were going way over 35 and it was 12:30 at night. lol Oh well.

Thank you for the replies.

Call your local Fish and Game office and let them know. They have jurisdiction over snowmobiles.
One thing for sure, many riders abuse their privilege by not obeying laws.
This is true in all “off road” vehicle situations. If there is no one to police them, they do as they please...same as summer boaters.

Is it true? I hear Top-Water has "people". Can fix your problem of after midnight snowmobiling.

Who do you pay your real estate taxes to?

Years ago I lived in a town with a good name and the town next to it, not so much. A 300 unit condo complex was built in the next town but the end of their driveway/private entrance was in the town I lived in. Everyone's address was 1100 Salem St, Unit XX, and then my town. Their driver's licenses even used that address so it said the wrong town, the one that they didn't really live in. When they called the police they were told they called the wrong police department. Some of the residents even tried to register their children in school in the wrong town and waved their driver's license around, claiming to be residents.
