Section VEH.02.06 — Residential Areas: Safe Zones

(a) Because of the higher population of Tribal members and the high number of Tribal service providers in the Tribal housing area, and the number of private homes in other areas, residential areas are hereby designated safe zones.

(b) In addition to the requirements in Section VEH.02.05, ATV operators in the Tribal residential areas:

(1) Are prohibited from operating ATVs from 9pm-6am.

(2) Shall operate ATVs no faster than 15 miles per hour.

(3) Shall not operate ATVs on sidewalks or yards, unless the operator is on their own land or land assignment.

(4) Shall use extra caution, including yielding right of way, whenever there are pedestrians or other motor vehicle traffic in the near vicinity.

(5) Shall not cause excessive noise with ATVs.

(6) Shall not use the public driveways of Tribal service providers, unless conducting business.

(7) Shall not use the Tribal residential areas as a riding area. In the Tribal residential housing areas, ATVs should only be utilized to get to and from another area.

(A) Operators shall use the shortest distances when entering and exiting the Tribal residential areas. For example, operators going to a residence within the Tribal housing area must take the most direct route to the residence.
