SAFETY
Safe Riding Gear
Always wear clothing suited to the type of riding. ATV riding requires
special protective clothing for comfort and to reduce the chance of
injury.
1. Helmet
Your helmet is the most important piece
of protective gear for safe riding. A
helmet can prevent a severe head injury.
Select an approved helmet that meets or
exceeds your state’s safety standards
and bears either the Department of
Transportation (DOT) label, the
American National Standards Institute
label (ANSI z90.1), or the Snell
Memorial Foundation label.
2. Eye Protection
Do not depend on sunglasses for proper
eye protection. A pair of goggles or a
helmet face shield offer the best
protection for your eyes. They should
be kept clean and be of shatterproof
design (bearing the markings z2.1 or
VESC 8).
3. Gloves
Off-road style gloves with knuckle pads are the best for comfort and
protection.
4. Boots
The best footwear is a pair of strong over-the-calf boots with heels, like
moto-cross boots.
5. Clothing
Always wear long sleeves and long pants to protect arms and legs.
Riding pants with kneepads and a jersey with shoulder pads provide
the best protection.
