IS IT LEGAL ?

My wife and I were recently out on the trails and noticed THREE individuals on a snowmobile. It looked like two parents and a small child, approximately 5 - 7 years old, sandwiched between the two older 'adults'.

Okay, the child wasn't upfront, where if there was a serious head on accident, they would be crushed by the front handlebars - or worse being thrown forward, into a tree; nor were they at the rear, where they might get 'bounced' off the sled from a serious dip on the trail.

But what's legal here? At a glance, it looked like a regular sled, not a longer or wider "touring" model, but I suspect it doesn't matter here.

What's legal and what is the ODSCI's opinion on exceeding more than two riders? Jeez, don't they make proper 'caboose' sleds anymore?

It is safe, with the long benches on todays sleds, I can ride no problem with 3, compared to 2 on a single sled, now that seems dangerouse at high speeds, plus uncomfortable also.
