How many people were killed by atv accidents in 2023


How Many ATV Accidents Happen Each Year?

All-Terrain vehicles (ATV) are a popular motorized vehicle that allows riders to travel off-road into the outdoors and sometimes at great speeds.

Also known as a “quad” or “four wheeler,” they come with three or four-wheels, low-pressure tires, a handlebar for steering, and hand controls for braking and acceleration. The rider straddles the bike. 

They are intended for a single rider with no passenger.

There are ATVs made specifically for youngsters and you will see a label on the ATV with the age requirement. ATVs intended for adults generally can go faster and are larger and too heavy for a young person or adolescent to handle.   

An ATV is not a toy. Serious injury can occur with the improper use of an ATV.

Another form of ATV is a UTV or Utility Task Vehicle. It is a four-wheeler off-road vehicle surrounded by a steel cage and equipped with seat belts and a wind screen. It is intended for more than one rider.  

ATV Accidents

From 1982 to 2014, the federal government reports there were 362 deaths in Alabama related to ATV accidents. 

Every year nationwide approximately 135,000 individuals are injured in ATV-related accidents. There are between 300-400 people killed annually in these accidents with one-third of them children under the age of 16.

Ages 15 to 24 saw the largest number of ATV operator fatalities, according to the US Department of Transportation (DOT).

The age group of 35 to 44 had the highest percentage of ATV operators involved in fatal crashes with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or higher, reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) crash statistics from 2004 to 2013.

In 2018, there were 8 ATV-related fatalities in Alabama, according to the Consumer Federation of America.  The state reached a death toll peak of 20 ATV occupant fatalities in 2009.

That number is on the rise, according to the CPSC, because of the accelerated sales of ATVs. The summertime is the peak season for off-road injuries.

Injuries occur when an individual is thrown from the ATV and suffers head trauma or bodily injury.

Other injuries result when the ATV flips and lands on top of the rider.

These are preventable injuries if you follow the industry safety advice.

ATV Safety

When riding an ATV you will want to make sure you wear a DOT compliant helmet that protects your eyes and your head. Make sure it fits properly and the chin strap is secure.

Other safety measures include:

  • To protect yourself wear goggles, long pants, long sleeves, over the ankle boots and gloves.
  • Take an ATV Rider Course training program, which may be free when you purchase your new ATV.
  • ATVs are designed to be driven off-road. Do not ride on a paved road because turning on paved surfaces is difficult and dangerous due to the solid rear axle.
  • Never ride your ATV under the influence of drugs or alcohol.  
  • Make sure air pressure corresponds to the recommended tire pressure and that both sides are inflated at the same pressure.
  • To avoid loss of control, make sure axle nuts are tightly secured and wheel nuts are tightened properly.
  • Avoid hills that appear too steep and never ride ahead if you do not have visibility of the road.
  • ATVs intended for adults should not be ridden by those under the age of 16.

ATV Dangers

It is possible that your ATV has a defective part installed in its system.  That is why some are recalled for defective clutch, tires, fender, or throttle.  If a defective part caused your ATV accident you may be able to file a product liability claim against the manufacturer. 

For example, Kawasaki has just recalled about 2,600 Teryx off-highway vehicles due to an incorrect joint assembly that can cause steering loss. Last March, Kawasaki also recalled about 2,600 Mule Pro MX off-highway utility vehicles because there was a problem with the fuel tank cap gasket that can allow fuel to leak, posing a fire hazard.
The company had received about seven reports of vehicles catching fire.

The largest recall was in 2016 of the Polaris off-highway vehicles when 133,000 were recalled due to a fire hazard. The company had received reports of fires resulting in the death of a 15-year-old passenger in a rollover that resulted from a fire.

As part of our representation of your interests, attorney J. Allen Brown will determine the cause of the crash of your off-road vehicle. If you sustained a personal injury due to the negligence of others, Mr. Brown will be thorough in the investigation of your case.

Traffic police statistics: the number of "drunk" accidents has dropped sharply in Russia of the year. Portal "AvtoVzglyad" got acquainted with this document of the traffic police.

Maxim Stroker

In the first six months of 2022, 53,537 car accidents were registered in Russia, in which people were injured. This is 7.2% less than in the first half of the “coronavirus” 2021. In the current year, 5,651 people died on the roads of the country (by 3.9% less). During the same period, 67,708 people were injured in road accidents - 7.5% less than a year earlier. The largest decrease in the number of road traffic victims was noted in Karelia (-45.2%), Chechnya (-59.5%), Kostroma region (-46.9%), St. Petersburg (-41.9%) and the Nenets Autonomous Okrug ( −100%).

Traffic police data show that the number of "drunk" accidents in the first half of 2022 fell by almost 20% compared to the same period last year - to 5295 accidents of this kind. They killed 1014 people (a decrease of 34.2%) and injured 7138 citizens (by 19.1% less). The traffic police notes that accidents involving drunk drivers account for 9.9% of the overall picture of accidents on the roads of Russia.

Incidents involving pedestrians have a significant weight in the traffic accident statistics. The analysis shows that the largest number of accidents (59.5%, or 8464 episodes) associated with collisions with pedestrians occurred outside the boundaries of pedestrian crossings. Pedestrians who died in this type of accident account for more than three-quarters (81.7%, or 1055) of the total number of deaths during collisions.

In total, pedestrian accidents account for 26.6% of all accidents. For the first half of 2022, 14,219 such cases were registered. This is 6.7% less than a goal earlier. The collisions killed 1,292 (−1.6%) pedestrians and injured 13,433 people (−7.3%).

Traffic police analysts note the traditionally low proportion of accidents in which technical malfunctions of the vehicle were recorded or conditions under which their operation is prohibited - 4. 9%. In the six months of 2022, 2,646 such cases were registered, which is 21.2% less than a year earlier. Thus, it can be stated that the “abolition of technical inspection” for passenger cars of individuals, which occurred on January 1, 2022, did not lead to a surge in accidents after the disappearance of state control over the technical condition of millions of cars of citizens.

Police statistics have recently recorded an explosive growth of accidents with "pilots" of various means of individual mobility (SIM) - electric scooters, unicycles, gyro scooters, electric bicycles and similar devices.
