i saw in 1 thread where this guy said there were signs say the roads were designated for atv use, have even read they ride them on the Streets in canada, i remember when i was a kid in MO at silver dollar city and there was two 3-wheelers in parking lot with motorcycle tags on them. why can't i ride mine down to the corner store or wal-mart?

Here in Arizona you can register a quad to ride on the street. all ya need are break lights, headlights, horn, mirror and insurance. both my rincons are street legal. i have been out to get beer and gas up and have also gone out from the house to ride in the desert. its kinda fun to be zipping along with the cars in rush hour at 50 mph but it sure eats your tires up.

In the State of MO till the mid 90's you could get a car plate for an ATV. but they passed the law about seat belts and also it was written into the law that ATV's could not be lincesed in the state after then. Some counties in the state you can buy a county tag and ride any numbered county road in that county if you have there tag.
Remember each state is different.

I ride on the roads in NY. Yea it eats the tires like hell but it gets me from trail to trail. It very illegal and the cop(s) hate when you rip past their house doin 70MPH. one time me and my friend had the cop chase us across a field then he got stuck in a ditch and we went up into the woods and watched him get pulled out with a tow truck. it was good times that day. But we just ride the roads anyways and if they chase ya, run, dont stop
