It’s ATV Safety Week (June 1-7th) and the OPP are reminding people that along with the fun there are potential dangers with all terrain vehicles.
240 people were killed in ATV collisions in the past 10 years and 41 of them were passengers.
The OPP also want people to remember their helmets, as half of the ATV riders killed weren’t wearing one, and half were also impaired by alcohol or drugs.
