LargeFry The V.P. Registered: 06/09/06 Posts: 1214 Loc: Chester	OK, I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but there has been a lot of chatter lately about driving on the ice. Everyday I hear of a new story. I always though motor vehicles were a no no, while registered recreational vehicles (atvs, snowmobiles, ect) are ok. Just to clarify, what is the law on this?

Any person who drives any motor vehicle on the frozen surface of any public body of water shall have committed an infraction. The presence of any motor vehicle on any such frozen surface shall be prima facie evidence of a violation of this section. This section shall not apply to motor vehicles owned and being used by or being operated pursuant to a contract with governmental agencies or owned and being used by an educational institution. http://www.cga.ct.gov/2013/pub/chap_246.htm My father drove around on Waramaug as a kid but it wasn't an option for me once I got to driving
