And not a moment too soon! As the opposition pushes to ban ATV use by children under the age of 16, "statistics" fuel their effort. By following the law and instilling good judgment upon our children, we can reduce accidents that sometimes lead to hospital visits. These preventable emergency room visits become statistics used to motivate the ban of kids’ ATV use!
