A recent study by the Consumer Product Safety Commission found that the number of ATV accidents has increased in the past three years, with 606 people suffering wrongful death from ATV accidents in the year 2006 alone. Thirty percent of all injuries related to ATV accidents involve children under the age of sixteen. A Fostoria man suffered personal injury after an ATV accident Tuesday night, according to the Toledo Blade. The Blade also reported the impact knocked his helmet off.

Our Toledo, Ohio ATV accident attorneys urge riders and drivers to be careful while on all-terrain vehicles, to avoid ATV accidents. Always wear a helmet and obey all posted traffic signs. Make sure you have proper training before driving an ATV, and never allow children to drive an adult ATV. As with any motor vehicle, never drive under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
