There currently is no helmet law on the books for OHV/sled users.
Back a couple of years a task force was put together with Ab Offhighway Vehicle Association and Ab Snowmobile Assocaition involved to propose draft regulations for helmet use.
The draft regulations are currently sitting on the Ministers desk for sign off but has not moved for the past year.
Requirements for OHV/sled use on crown land remains as insurance and registration. Motorcycles you do require a helmet, plates and isurance as well as a headlight and tail light.
If memory serves me; there are a couple of towns that do require helmets as part of their bylaws to permit OHV/sled use with in town limits to go from your home out to the trail system...I don't remember which ones.
