Is it legal to drive a four wheeler while coon hunting?
The exact circumstance involves the dog running/tracking while the hunter is in the field on a four wheeler until treeing happens, then getting off the four wheeler to go shoot the coon.

The activity utilizing any motor driven conveyance would be illegal. I have posted the applicable Indiana Administrative Code below.
312 IAC 9-2-2 Prohibition against motor driven conveyances Authority: IC 14-22-2-6 Affected: IC 14-22 Sec. 2. (a) An individual must not take or chase a wild mammal or bird from, by the use of, or with the aid of a motor driven conveyance, except: (1) as authorized for an individual with a special hunting permit for a person with a disability under 312 IAC 9-10-10; and (2) as provided in subsection (b). (b) A motorboat may be used to: (1) check traps that are lawfully set and maintained; or (2) retrieve a dead or crippled waterfowl. (c) A motorboat may be used to hunt waterfowl if the motorboat is: (1) beached; (2) resting at anchor; (3) tied to a stationary object; or (4) otherwise without motion except as provided by: (A) wind; (B) water current; or (C) hand-operated oars or paddles. (d) An individual must not discharge a firearm or bow and arrows from a motor driven conveyance while the conveyance is in motion.
