or any other special occasion. But manufacturers of the popular off road vehicles
respond that they can be safe when riders are prudent. Researchers at the Unversity

ATV accidents, youngsters under 16 should be barred from riding the vehicles.

the vehicles and the small size of children," they said in a statement issued
Monday. About a fourth of all U.S. ATV deaths -- 120 in 2005 -- involved youngsters
under 16. An estimated 40,000 youngsters were treated in emergency rooms that
year for ATV-related injuries, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission."
