Hunter and all-terrain vehicle (ATV)

All-terrain vehicles (ATVs) are special-purpose vehicles that require careful, responsible handling and good judgment.

  • They’re useful for traveling into back country, but they can damage the environment if used recklessly. It also requires training and practice to handle them safely on rough terrain.
  • Studies show that the majority of ATV accidents occur when the rider unexpectedly encounters an obstacle, such as a rock or a ditch. Maintaining a safe speed is critical.
  • If you use ATVs to hunt, prepare yourself and your family by attending an approved ATV course.
  • Before hunting with ATVs on private land, be sure to get the landowner’s permission.
