Half of ATV riders killed in OPP-investigated incidents were not wearing a helmet, a trend that hasn’t improved in over a decade.
Nearly half of fatalities also involve alcohol or drugs.
These are preventable tragedies. Before you hit the trails:
- Wear a helmet, every ride, every time
- Never ride impaired
- Control your speed and stay alert
Your choices don’t just impact you, they affect your passengers, your family, and your community.
