I was listening to your 'news' today when you made a comment about ATV's that really wasn't fair. It was something to the effect of them killing two persons a day.... and while it may be true, you failed to make comparisons to many other activities that kill far more people every day. You also failed to mention that the result of increased polularity & the injury rate means.... a lesser percentage of the users are getting hurt.... and it continues to decline.
finally, why not just state that 92% of these fatalities are from people not obeying the basic warnings on the machines themselves... the machine is NOT to blame, it's not going to jump up & kill you by itself.
I have the facts if you want them on this topic.
I'm an avid ATV rider & enthusiast, the sport continues to grow and become safer inspite of the efforts of those who oppose it.
It's shameful for a jounalist of your caliber to not report the WHOLE STORY. "
