All terrain vehicle ownership,use, and self reported safety behaviours in rural children

162 children, mean age 11.4 years, 54% female, answered a questionnaire in rural Manitoba, Canada. The results showed that ATVs are commonly used with inadequate protective gear and dangerous riding habits. The authors recommend that mandatory rider training, consumer and dealer education, and legislation enforcement could improve ATV safety in this age group.
