Dear Mount Holly Community Members,
I've compiled a handful of recent scientific articles that discuss ATV safety on roadways (published between 2013 - 2016). While it may seem like I searched only for articles pertaining to ATV fatalities, that was not the case. Using Google Scholar, my search terms were, "ATV unpaved paved roads traffic safety."
As with most scientific papers, the full text costs money, but, the links below will take you to a free summary of each article.
Sincerely,
Amanda Frank
