What Causes ATV Crashes?

A variety of factors can contribute to ATV driver or passenger injuries while out on the trails. Some common causes include:

  • Weather: Bad conditions can reduce visibility and cause riders to misjudge distances and hazards.
  • Terrain and Environment: Mud, loose gravel, and other hazards can often appear safe at first, especially to inexperienced drivers. Unfortunately, many riders cause crashes when they travel too fast or overcorrect while steering.
  • Riding With a Passenger: Many ATVs are designed for a single rider. Adding a passenger to this type of vehicle can dramatically and dangerously change its handling, shock-absorption, and crashworthiness.
  • Defective ATVs and Parts: ATVs and their parts can break due to bad engineering, incorrect assembly, or lack of maintenance. These issues can cause a crash or make a crash worse than it should have been.
  • Children Operating ATVs: A startling number of serious personal injuries involve ATVs operated by children. Most children do not have the strength, judgment, or skill to operate an ATV on their own. If you let children operate an off-road vehicle at all, you should always supervise them.

Steps to Take After an ATV Crash

If you have been the victim of an ATV accident, it is important that you take the following steps: 

  • Seek Immediate Medical Attention
    To pursue compensation for your injuries, you need documented proof. Most severe and catastrophic injuries are documented when you go to the ER, but other debilitating conditions can take time to develop. You may feel fine or have minor symptoms right after an ATV crash, but traumatic brain injuries, back injuries, neck injuries, and other health problems can take days or even weeks to show up. An experienced medical professional can spot early warning signs and help you start recovering right away.
  • Collect Information Related to the ATV Collision
    Gather the names, phone numbers, and addresses of anyone involved in the ATV accident, including witnesses to the crash. Also take note of the exact location of the accident and record any information about the ATV, including the make and model number. Take photographs of the scene, your injuries, and anything else that seems relevant to the crash.
  • Don’t Talk About the Accident
    Insurance adjusters will call you, and they are trained to get victims to settle for as little compensation as possible. Anything that you say to the insurance company may make it difficult to settle your claim. Similarly, don’t post about your crash or injuries on social media. It can hurt your claim later.
  • Contact an ATV Accident Lawyer at Andy Citrin Injury Attorneys
    An insurance provider may ask you to sign paperwork following your ATV accident. Never sign anything until you have consulted an ATV accident lawyer. The documents you sign may limit the amount of compensation you are able to collect in an ATV accident lawsuit.
