The article's author neglected that he drove in to private property (Meredith Moorings Condo Association), put sled on pavement, drove snow machine down the grass embankment to more grass, crossed the private beach; he had to have gained speed! Proceeding on to Lake. Just for starters, I'd call it trespassing.

Where's the authority of court system to remove his license or certificate to drive a "boat" or a snow machine?

If nobody wants it called stupid or dumb, it certainly is extremely irresponsible behavior, and avoids all common sense of activity on a body of water. $360 is a very small price to pay. Sounds like we will see "copy cat" activities!

What's the next stunt? Or dare? Stupid or Dumb? Or irresponsible activity? Take a pair of water skis and slide down the winter ski jump at Gunstock, or drive an Indy Race Car up Mount Washington Auto Road?

Been lurking around and observing, both informed & educated comments, as well as uninformed and uneducated comments for a while, long before this thread stated!
