ATV Wreck Statistics

ATVsafetynet.org quotes some staggering statistics regarding ATV’s and kids.  From 1982 to 2008, nearly one-third of the 9,633 ATV-related deaths were children under the age of 16.  Over one hundred children are seriously injured every day and approximately one dies every other day from an ATV-related crash.  Injuries to children from ATV accidents cost our society over two billion dollars annually in medical and economic costs.  Don’t allow children under the age of 16 to ride ATV’s.
