A safe, enjoyable ride is dependent on
many personal choices. An ATV, like all
motorized vehicles, can be dangerous to
operate if you choose to ignore safety
precautions, take unnecessary chances, or
ride beyond your ability or your
machine’s capability. Don’t allow the
thrill of freedom or adventure to affect
your ability to make good, safe choices.
Alcohol and Drug
Consumption
It’s extremely dangerous and often illegal
to drink alcoholic beverages and ride...
it’s also very foolish.
