Don’t let fall bring falls from a Yamaha Rhino ATV
Just be sure your fall fun doesn’t lead to a fall — or other accident — involving an all terrain vehicle. Small ATVs such as Yamaha Rhino ATVs are not road-worthy — in fact, they’re illegal to drive on Texas streets and highways. Rather, they are meant for off-road recreation. The trouble is, thousands of ATV users are having so much “recreation” that it’s maiming or killing them. High-profile victims have included rocker Ozzy Osbourne, who broke six ribs, his collarbone and a vertebra in his neck in a 2003 ATV accident, and sax player LeRoi Moore of the Dave Matthews Band, who died two months after an ATV accident last June. |
Fall is coming, the air is cooling, and fall fun is in that air.
