SNOWMOBILING SAFETY CAMPAIGN
We want to stay in touch with you! You can follow us on several social media platforms. MADD will frequently post what is happening on our social media. Like, follow, and interact to get the latest updates on all things MADD.
MADD is partnering up with various State Agencies in Minnesota, South Dakota, North Dakota, Iowa, Illinois, and Wisconsin, to launch the first annual Snowmobile Safety Campaign to kick off the winter recreation season while promoting safety and and educating the public about the dangers of operating a snowmobile while impaired by alcohol and drugs. Snowmobiling is a great way to get out and enjoy the outdoors during the winter months. The long winters attract many people to take part — but there’s one hard truth: drinking alcohol and/or consuming drugs and riding don’t mix. According to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, during the 2021-2022 season, there were 122 snowmobile accidents, 6 fatalities, and 90 injuries.
