In an effort to improve the safety of snowmobilers, the New Hampshire Fish and Game and the New Hampshire Snowmobile Association is endorsing that riders keep both hands on the handle bars when you are notifying oncoming snowmobiles that you have riders behind you. The idea is to keep riders hands on their handle bars and not in the air signaling to oncoming sleds, especially in turns.
This is done by using a Communications Safety Light System consisting of an Amber or Green lighted mounted on the left side of the snowmobile from the seat position

Option 2: To use a lower cost alternative solution, you can purchase portable clip on lights that sell for about $10.00 each, to learn more and purchase these click here. Just clip the proper colored light onto your sled’s windshield or mirror with little or no modifications. These are battery powered units that require no wiring or electrical knowledge. Remember that you need to order two units, one each of the amber light and green light. The total cost is a little over $28.00 with shipping.
