Kids Safety Riding ATV’s
Written by BWP on January 22, 2009 – 6:09 am -Kids ATV and Youth ATV are a great match with today’s active youth. A youth ATV or kids ATV can allow years of fun and excitement not just for your kids, but for the entire family. Kids twelve to sixteen should drive four wheelers below 90 cc’s. Only children above the age of sixteen should drive an adult ATV which can attain much higher speeds.
Children younger than sixteen are twice as likely to be hurt on adult ATVs as compared to those riding youth ATVs. Children are especially vulnerable to poor judgement in the use of these powerful vehicles. Product Safety Commission reports in one study that ninety-five percent of children hurt on ATVs were driving vehicles greater than the size suggested for their age.
