All i know is you have to show DL when renewing a reg. so i would say yes.

You must have a drivers lisence to operate a snowmobile, if over the age of 18. If under the age of 18 a snowmobile safety certifricate must be valid if operating on any road or even crossing the road. Another fact I found was anyone under 18 must be with an adult to ride along. Most trails are classified as Co. roads, either unmaintained or unplowed. Do not drink and drive. Al
