ATV accidents happen on sealed and unsealed roads. They happen during the night and during the day. The victims are people of all ages, incomes and lifestyles. Many people choose to drive their ATVs on normal roads and many times the accident will take place due to carelessness. Fatalities and accidents on an ATV are often due to:

• Rollovers
• Speeding
• Alcohol/drugs
• Collision with a fixed object
• Collision with a motor vehicle
• Collision with another ATV
• Reckless operating
• Steep terrain
• Mechanical default of the ATV

Who is Responsible for an ATV accident?

In some instances, the accident may be caused by the injured party’s own recklessness. In other instances, however, another party may be responsible for the accident. This could be the driver of the motor vehicle that hit the ATV, the manufacturer of the ATV that did not adequately service the recreational vehicle; or the driver of the ATV if you are a passenger that has been injured. In some instances even the council or organization responsible for maintaining the ATV roads may be at fault. At Bye, Goff and Rohde we will get to the bottom of what happened out there and determine what legal options you have.

In 2010 alone there were 14 fatalities on an ATV. This is a hard number of swallow, especially for the families and loved ones of those that were killed.
