Sandgod,
Sorry to hear about anyone getting hurt much less killing themselves(please note latter) on an atv. My unsolicited opoinion is that 99% of these accidents happen through driver error, inexperience or poorly maintained machines. I'd defy anyone to tell me that faulty production parts or acts of god account for more than one percent of these accidents. Hop on any motorized piece of equipment and yeah, you're not 'safe' until some kind of intelligent input is transferred to the machine.
That being said, my heartfelt sympathy and prayers go out to this public servant's family and friends. Let's all learn from their unfortunate loss.

A lot of people are just casual riders. The bikes sit in the garage all year, then they pull them out for hunting season or something and think they can ride proficiently after not being on a bike for a year. Plus, because quads have 4 wheels, people have a false sense of security. Someone getting on a 2 wheeled dirt bike, assumes it's dangerous (because they have to balance the thing), and they are naturally more cautious. Anyway, you better run for his senate seat-we need all the pro atv politicians we can get!
