Juniper 9-7

[bobracing]

Went for a Sunday drive.
It was hot
Didn't break anything
Pulled a, how shall we say, "inexperienced" driver out.
only got a couple pictures.

Good thing these are standard carry along stuff.
But bringing up rules:
http://www.blm.gov/or/resources/recreat ... -20338.pdf
sheet 4:
(a) states you must wear a helmet unless the rig is street licensed.
(d) states you must have a flag on Peterson road (or any road) unless a street rig.
Exemption: working officials.

when we were airing up the sheriff stopped and asked if we were OK. Nice but noticed he had no helmet and was driving a SxS down Peterson rd.

So with the above: an ORV can be driven down Peterson road now? and shouldn't the sheriff be following the same rules or are they using the exempt to get round wearing a helmet? and drive the SxS back out to the fire station?
