WARNING
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Cargo has such a huge affect on ATV handling that you need to pay a
lot of attention to your speed. Even on really level areas, you should
keep it under 10 mph (16 kph) if you’ve got a trailer attached. Avoid
uneven terrain. Also, consider that your braking distance is going to
increase with the more weight you carry.

A safe, enjoyable ride is dependent on many personal choices. An
ATV, like all motorized vehicles, can be dangerous to operate if you
choose to ignore safety precautions, take unnecessary chances, or ride
beyond your ability or your machine’s capability. Don’t allow the thrill
of freedom or adventure to affect your ability to make good, safe
choices.
Alcohol and Drug Consumption
It’s extremely dangerous and
often illegal to drink alco-
holic beverages and ride.
