All-Terrain Vehicle Accidents
There are many recreational vehicles Americans choose to utilize daily across the country. One of these vehicles is an all-terrain vehicle, or ATV. Also known as four-wheelers, ATVs can provide hours of entertainment and fun in a variety of locations, but they can also be very dangerous if defective. There are thousands of ATVs sold every year in the U.S., but unfortunately, not all of these vehicles are safe.
If you or a loved one has been injured because of a mechanical defect in an ATV, you may be eligible to receive financial compensation to pay for damages.

Recovering Damages for ATV Accidents
Because of their size and weight, ATV accidents can be costly. The most recent statistics from 2009 had a reported 376 deaths and close to 132,000 emergency room trips from an ATV accident. If you have been hurt due to an ATV manufacturing or design defect, you can fight back. You can file a lawsuit to recover the following damages:
- Medical expenses including operations, prescriptions drugs, and rehabilitation
- Lost wages from missing work
- Pain and suffering
- Wrongful death if you have lost a loved one in an ATV accident
Certain types of ATVs have already been banned due to their potential for dangerous accidents. Do not let dangerous four-wheelers continue to harm you and those you love.
