   Extractions: Farm operators may purchase all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) to haul livestock feed or get to the field but ATVs often serve another purpose: recreation. Since youth are frequently victims of accidents involving the popular multi-wheeled vehicles, it's important that all family members know and follow necessary precautions every time ATVs are used - for work or for play. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, four out of every 10 people treated each year in emergency rooms for ATV injuries are under age 16. In 1993, the Iowa Department of Public Health reported at least 50 injuries (including one fatality and nine hospitalizations) from farm-related ATV accidents. Not included are many accidents unrelated to agriculture. This publication briefly discusses major safety concerns related to ATVs, including the need for protective gear, a pre-ride inspection, and proper operation. Parents also should determine each family member's readiness to operate an ATV based on physical size, coordination, balance, ability to judge distances, willingness to follow rules, and peripheral vision.

Riding an all-terrain vehicle can be a very exciting, exhilarating experience but in the hands of an untrained operator an ATV can also be very dangerous to operate. ATV's handle very differently than other vehicles. Accidents happen very fast, even during routine exercises like turning, riding over obstacles, or riding on hills. The purpose of the Wisconsin ATV Safety Training program is to promote responsible, safe and ethical ATV use. By participating in the program students will obtain a better understanding of their obligations to the resources, the landowner, other ATV users and to themselves.

    Extractions: Information Trails of the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forests Welcome to the National Forests Off Road Vehicle (ORV) enthusiasts can find plenty of opportunities on Georgia's two National Forests to practice their rigorous sport. The Chattahoochee National Forest located in North Georgia, and the Oconee National Forest located in Central Georgia, are popular with individuals and family groups wanting a scenic and often challenging ride within the National Forest. Off road vehicles are defined as any motorized vehicle which travels off-road for recreational purposes. ORV's include: motorbikes such as minibikes, dirt bikes, enduros and motorcross bikes; four-wheel drive vehicles such as jeeps, land rovers, and pickups; all-terrain vehicles such as the popular three and four-wheelers; dune buggies; and snowmobiles. ORV Rules and Regulations The Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forests operate under motor vehicle laws set by the State of Georgia. This means that anyone operating an off road vehicle on a Forest Service road (including dirt/gravel roads) must follow all State vehicle laws and must have a valid driver's license. An exception to this regulation is made on a few Forest Service roads specifically designated by the Forest Supervisor. Off road vehicles must remain on designated roads, trails or in designated areas marked specifically for off road vehicle use. Some trails are restricted for a certain type of use such as only motorbikes or only four-wheel drive vehicles. These restrictions are set for safety reasons and to meet the special needs of each type of vehicle.

Safety is every riders responsibility. As an ATV rider you are responsbile for the safe operation of your machine. However, most of us forget that we also have a civic responsibility for the safety of others, especially children. Simple things like reminding other riders to bring their helmets, discouraging riders from attempting any trail they are not completely comfortable in navigating and riding in groups are just a few small things that can be a big help. We have assembled the following list of safety tips from various sources. We hope that you find them not only helpful but that you will find them of use. If you have a tip that you would like to share with others, send it to us and we will add it to this list. Just go to the contact us page or click here.

In this same period, the estimated number of ATV drivers increased 36 percent, driving hours grew 50 percent and the number of ATVs increased 40 percent, according to a recent Commission staff analysis. About a third of the victims injured in 2001 were under 16 years old.
