According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, kids under 16 are too young to ride ATVs, even with an adult. Here are some tips to keep older kids safe while riding:

  • Wear your gear including a DOT-compliant helmet, goggles, long sleeves, long pants, over-the-ankle boots, and gloves.
  • ATVs are designed to be operated off-highway and should not be operated on public or paved roads.
  • Never carry a passenger on a single-rider ATV.
  • Ride an ATV that’s right for your age.
  • Supervise all riders, and don’t ride alone.
  • Ride only on designated trails and at safe speeds.
  • Consider taking a hands-on safety training course before riding an ATV
  • Do not operate ATVs while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
  • Read and follow the operator’s manual and warning labels.
  • In the event of a crash, call 911, follow their instructions and don’t move anyone involved in the crash unless otherwise instructed by the 911 operator.
