Attala County Sheriff Tim Nail is warning residents to stay off of public roads on 4-wheelers and side-by-sides.
He said his office has recently received several complaints of people riding on county roads.
During Gov. Tate Reeves’ “shelter-in-place” order, personal use of a 4-wheeler or side-by-side on private land is allowed if all social distance guidelines are followed.
However, travel away from your home or land on a 4-wheeler or side-by-side is not permitted since the order states only essential travel is allowed.
Nail said anyone caught riding on a public road will be given a ticket.
