ATV Accidents
What is an ATV accident?
ATV accidents law is just one type of vehicular accidents law. Vehicular accidents law is a part of a much larger body of law called personal injury law.
All-terrain vehicles, or ATVs, are either three or four wheeled motorized vehicles used in recreational and work-related outdoor activities. Most ATVs are used off-road on natural and rough terrain like hills and sand dunes. Many ATVs are heavy and can reach speeds up to 55 MPH. Recreational ATV driving is rising in popularity amongst children, teens, and young adults. The rising popularity, age, and inexperience of the ATV riders are major contributors to the rise in accidents causing injuries and death. Most ATV injuries and deaths result from the ATV overturning or hitting something, such as rocks or bushes.
Serious ATV injuries can include broken bones, brain injuries and brain damage, spinal cord injuries, herniated discs, and even death.
