Which of the following is legal operation of a PWC in Alabama?

  1. Operating at full throttle in crowded areas

  2. Crossing at right angles to another vessel when visibility is unobstructed

  3. Following closely behind another vessel

  4. Making sharp turns at high speed in restricted areas

The correct answer is: Crossing at right angles to another vessel when visibility is unobstructed

PWC (Personal Watercraft) includes jet skis, wet bikes, and other similar models. In Alabama, it is legal to cross at right angles to another vessel as long as visibility is unobstructed. Operating a PWC at full throttle in crowded areas is dangerous and could easily lead to accidents. The same applies to following closely behind another vessel. Making sharp turns at high speed in restricted areas is also potentially hazardous to the rider and other watercraft. Therefore, the only legal operation in Alabama would be crossing at right angles to another vessel with unobstructed visibility.
