CARIBOU - A man from Worcester, Mass., faces charges of operating to endanger and operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicants after a Friday afternoon snowmobile accident.Alex Panarelli, 51, suffered minor leg injuries in the 3 p.m. accident, his second within 24 hours. He was treated at Cary Medical Center at Caribou and released.
Panarelli, according to Game Warden Edward Christie, had missed a turn off ITS 83 just before the accident. After missing the turnoff, Panarelli went along a water controlling berm when he tipped the sled over against a fence post.
In the process, Christie said, Panarelli blocked off the snowmobile trail, creating a dangerous situation.
Panarelli caused about $2,000 damage to the snowmobile rented from the Presque Isle Sled Shop.
The previous night, Christie said, Panarelli crashed another rented sled, causing about $2,500 damage to that snowmobile. No charges are pending as a result of that accident and Panarelli was uninjured.
Christie did not say whether the two snowmobiles were rented from the same dealer. It could not be determined whether Panarelli will have to pay for the damage to the sleds.
Christie said the operating while under the influence charge is pending the results of Intoxilyzer testing done by game wardens.
HOW DUMB CAN YOU BE ???

The reason for this is the majority of the people heading out to sled right now in these marginal conditions are morons who are so drunk they don't care about their sled or people they may injure.

Well it was on this mornings news that there have been 4 deaths in the area already this year and there was a total of 7 all of last year. So it is not looking good. I hear of one guy New Years am like just after midnight lost control on a lake and hit a rock cut on shore and died. Of coarse he was not wearing a helmet so that might have played a factor. I did not hear if he was drinking or not.

It seems the same everywhere, a few bad apples giving everyone a bad name. Same thing in my town, people tear up lawns so the town people hate us. I wish there was something we could do to stop these idiots!  I'd like to take a monster truck and run all their sleds over!! But that wouldn't work because they rented them or their parents paid for them so its no loss to them.

It must be something to do with Massachusetts residents. Some idiot around here (western MA) hit a groomer... not on the trails, but on a fricking ski slope! That's right, this dolt was riding his sled on downhill ski slopes. He hit the back of the thingie that the groomer tows so hard that him and his sled shot UP AND OVER the groomer and landed in front of it.

Its great fun for us in NewHampshire to poke fun at the Mass folks that come up and act like total idiots on sleds but we have home grown ones also. I have two friends that are pretty good guys sober and are fun to drink with also.....but they both cannot get on a sled sober. I am a big time anti drink and drive or ride when it comes to any vehicle. I refuse to ride with these two because of there habit of including a bottle of Jack or 12pack of Bud. Whats even sadder about both of these guys is that both of them have family and freinds that have been killed on sleds while drunk. One of the two actually found his own cousin frozzen solid up to his armpits in ice after he went for a late drunk ride after everyone else either passed out or was to drunk to notice him leave. He went through the ice in a pond afew miles away and they didnt find him till about 11am the next day. I cant imagine seeing something like that and it not make me change my ways.
