After 8 ATV deaths in the province this year, many considered preventable, the Provincial federation is echoing the RCMP’s call for safety and better decision making.
Many of those deaths involved drinking alcohol and not wearing a helmet or both.
The Provincial ATV Federation President Daniel Boucher tells CHSJ News these issues are covered in the safety courses they offer.
Boucher says in their ATV rider course they educate the riders on the proper techniques to use.
He says they spend time on the laws and regulations in the province and the good driving ethics like not drinking and driving and the impact it has on other riders.
