SLIDING AND SKIDDING

Care should be used when riding on loose or

slippery surfaces since the ATV may slide. If

unexpected and uncorrected, sliding could lead

to an accident.

To reduce the tendency for the front wheels to

slide in loose or slippery conditions, positioning

your weight over the front wheels will sometimes

help.

If the rear wheels of your ATV start to slide side-

ways, control can usually be regained (if there is

room to do so) by steering in the direction of the

slide. Applying the brakes or accelerating is not

recommended until you have corrected the

slide.
