accident and injury to the operator
and/or passenger.
A passenger riding on a rack or in the
cargo bed can fall from the vehicle,
which could result in serious injury.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Never carry a passenger.
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Operating an ATV on paved surfaces,
including sidewalks, paths, parking lots,
and driveways.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
ATV tires are designed for off-road use.
Operating on paved surfaces may
adversely affect the handling of the ATV
and could result in loss of control,
accident, and/or injury.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Avoid operating the ATV on pavement. If
it's unavoidable, travel slowly and avoid
sudden turns or stops.
