Age limit and safety push for ATVs across child riders
The CPSC urged a voluntary age limit on ATV riders and called on manufacturers to halt marketing of under 12 models. The three and four wheel off-road vehicles have caused 559 deaths and over 230,000 injuries since 1982 with 23 million in use, prompting a detailed safety study. Commissioner Anne Graham Seanter warned that many youths lack the skills to operate ATVs safely, while industry group head Alan Isley argued that removing small ATVs could raise risk by pushing families toward larger machines.
