Five Must Remember Safety Rules for ATV Riders

Enjoying a thrilling ride in the wild on your ATV is synonymous with being prepared and safe. Sometimes, even a minute of carelessness can change the dream ride into a nightmare. Here are the 5 most important rules every rider who aspires to drive an All Terrain Vehicles must keep in mind.
Choose the correct size: Rugged terrains make it difficult for any vehicle to move consistently without toppling. Although off-road vehicles are made to deal with that, they cannot accommodate the weight of a driver beyond its capacity. Therefore, you need to make sure that the size of the vehicle you are choosing must comply with your body weight so that the center of gravity can be maintained.

Get safety training: Almost all dealerships will ask you to attend a safety training course if you are a novice. Off-road vehicles are not similarly handled as regular cars or bikes, and so you need to get trained to know what you will have to deal with. If you cannot find a trainer, read the manuals well and practice on plain fields before you hit the rough land.
Do a pre-run test: No matter whether it is your first drive or the hundredth, an ATV rider always takes stock of his or her vehicle before hopping on. Tug at the wheels and handles to see if they are fixed, check the suspensions, throttle, fuel, and everything else than can be checked.
Wear proper gear: Do a check-run of safety gear before jumping on the ride. Check that your helmet, gloves, knee pads, etc., are in place.

Don’t drive drunk: A no-brainer, but often ignored. Do not drive if you are under influence of alcohol or drugs. Also, don’t attempt to have a passenger thinking that the large seat will accommodate them .If you do plan to have a co-rider, choose a vehicle specially made for that, like the Polaris RZR XP 900 or Polaris RZR 1000 EPS.

The only ones who end up being great ATV riders are those who can balance safety with risk. So, take your ATV for a spin, but check your safety preparations before anything else.
