Is Poor Design the Cause of Many ATV Accidents?
July 25th, 2010 by admin
Most all terrain vehicle deaths result from the vehicle overturning or hitting something. Over 6,000 people have lost their lives in accidents involving all terrain vehicles. Estimates indicate that nearly one thousand people across the country will die this year on an ATV, with tens of thousands more injured. As these machines get bigger and faster, the injuries sustained by riders and passengers become more severe.
The vast majority of ATV accidents are a direct result of poor design on the part of the manufacturer. A prime example involves the introduction of the three-wheeler in the early 1980′s. Despite knowledge of the risks associated with these machines, manufactures continued to produce and sell millions of them.
