ATV Personal Injury Lawyer West Palm Beach FL (561) 655-1990

Providing Attorney Representation in Florida Since 1985

One of the most serious mistakes anyone, including a parent, can make when operating an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) is to treat the ATV as if it is a toy. ATVs are not toys. They are motorist vehicles that must be treated with the same respect that you give a car, truck, or motorcycle. Simply because ATVs are not permitted for use on roads and highways does not mean ATVs do not cause serious injuries and deaths.

From 1982 through 2011, 485 people died in ATV accidents in Florida alone putting Florida in the top 10 states for ATV deaths in the United States. When an ATV accidents happen, most people assume that the crash was due to driver error. While driver error does account for a substantial number of ATV deaths each year, defects in the design and manufacturing errors also account for a significant number of ATV deaths each year. ATV Safety Tips To Keep You And Your Family Safe
