Family Focus ATV safety in Manitoba urges caution
The article notes ATVs are popular in Manitoba for recreation and farm work. It states that riders must be over fourteen to drive, with underage riders needing supervision. IM-PACT reports 70 to 80 children are seriously injured or killed annually, with over half under fourteen, and estimates one ATV death corresponds to about 30 hospitalizations.
Community Notes Include Visits, Weddings and Graduations
