Off Road Vehicle Restrictions Including Okanagan

[sulchie]

It seems like the powers that be would prefer that nobody does any offroading in this province ever again. They like it when I pay for gas and gear and registration and parts and oil though. If they dont want people to be out in the bush then why are they letting dealerships sell these machines? This ban is probably going to be a yearly thing so im buying a snow machine so i actually get to do some riding still. It'll be really safe up there when there's three feet of snow.

The blame isn't with the powers that be, it's with the idiots who can't go into the woods without setting it on fire.

A certain percentage of people are idiots so the more people there are, the more idiots. And there's too many people here now.

KAMLOOPS - The operation of off-road vehicles will once again be permitted on Crown land throughout the Cariboo Fire Centre, Kamloops Fire Centre and Southeast Fire Centre, effective at noon on Wednesday, Sept. 20, 2017.

Cooler weather conditions and recent precipitation have reduced the flammability of fine fuels in these regions, which has significantly reduced the chance of a wildfire starting from a spark or a hot engine.

However, the BC Wildfire Service reminds the public that some area restrictions are still in effect on Crown land in the vicinity of large wildfires in the Cariboo Fire Centre, Kamloops Fire Centre and Southeast Fire Centre, to help protect public safety and allow firefighting operations to continue efficiently. The use of off-road vehicles will continue to be prohibited in the restricted areas around these wildfires.

Additionally, campfire prohibitions remain in effect throughout the Cariboo Fire Centre, Kamloops Fire Centre and Southeast Fire Centre.
