Do I need a safety course to ride in Nova Scotia?
Most Nova Scotia riders do need an ATV safety course, there are limited exemptions for riders who owned and operated an ATV prior to 2006. Visit the Nova Scotia Lands and Forrest website for full details.
The ATV safety course is mandatory in Nova Scotia unless you are exempt.
People who do NOT have to take a safety training course:
  • You were born before April 1, 1987, AND
  • You bought your OHV before April 1, 2006, AND
  • You registered your OHV before September 30, 2007, AND
  • You have a valid driver’s licence* AND
  • You are NOT a parent or guardian* supervising a child or youth.
  • If you are exempt, your spouse* is also exempt if they were born before April 1, 1987, AND
  • they have a valid driver’s licence*.
You lose your exception if you violate the act or lose your driver’s licence*. This means you will now need training.
