Lafond, D. (1984). The young child and
the motorized All Terrain Vehicle. Baltimore, Maryland:
Maryland State Department of Education. The thesis put forth in this paper is that after age eight, a child may
have the capability of operating OHVs. The increased accident rate probably
has less to do with the stability or safety of the vehicle than with the
type of training children and adults receive. The attitude and general
frame of mind that these vehicles are for fun and for the child-feelings
in you probably has more to do with setting the stage for high accident
potential.
