Preventing injuries from all-terrain vehicles.
All-terrain vehicles (ATVs) are widely used in Canada for recreation, transportation and occupations such as farming. As motorized vehicles, they can be especially dangerous when used by children and young adolescents who lack the knowledge, physical size, strength, and cognitive and motor skills to operate them safely. The magnitude of injury risk to young riders is reflected in explicit vehic...
متن کاملPotential Benefit of the QuadbarTM on All-Terrain Vehicles
An epidemic exists related to all-terrain vehicle (ATV) fatal and nonfatal injuries in the United States and in Australia as well as in other countries. More than 60% of these injuries are associated with ATV overturns. While behavior-related methods have failed to abate this epidemic, engineered interventions have been lacking. However, one technology, the QuadbarTM (QB), shows promise as a cr...

ATVs are designed for motorized off-highway work and recreation, can weigh up to 600 lbs (272 kg), and may reach speeds as high as 75 mph (120 km/h). ATV crashes, in...
متن کاملDesign of an All-Terrain Rover
Ever since the onset of robotics, humans have been finding increasingly clever ways to traverse harsher terrain. There have traditionally been two defined robotic locomotion methods: wheels and legs. This paper describes the design and construction process of a third, new type of All-Terrain Rover (ATR) that uses a hybrid design involving both wheels and legs. The ATR consists of four wheels, w...
متن کاملFatalities in Traffic Crashes Involving All-Terrain Vehicles.
Introduction ATVs are defined as off-road recreational vehicles that may or may not be permitted for use on public roadways depending on a wide range of State regulations. An ATV generally has three or more low-pressure tires, a straddle seat, a handlebar for steering, and hand controls for braking and acceleration. As with any vehicle, proper training and education are important when operating...
