The FCMQ has chosen to make trail safety a priority. The FCMQ’s actions are as follows:

• The development, together with government authorities, of the Règlement de sécurité du circuit de courses de motoneiges du Québec (the Québec snowmobile race circuit safety regulations) in 1997. These regulations provide the race supervisor with the necessary authority to conduct races safely;
• The provision of publications allowing to better plan excursions in all safety;
• The transmission of information on acts and regulations;
• The organization of the Safety Caravan
• The presence of provincial trail wardens: Volunteers reporting directly to the FCMQ work closely with police forces and local trail wardens to visit local clubs and patrol trails. These individuals are provided with snowmobiles clearly identified with the project and equipped with flashing lights;
• The signage activities and special services: Priority is given to the updating and implementation of efficient signage;
• Recommendations regarding the minimum ice thicknesses required:
