If you’re injured in an accident involving an off-road recreational vehicle such as an ATV or utility vehicle such as a truck, the consequences can be catastrophic. Although recreational vehicles by design provide less protection to occupants than passenger cars, the manufacturer often includes other design features to improve their safety on rocky, steep, hilly, rough, and wet terrains. However, these safety features can fail to work properly or users dangerously modify or tamper with the safety devices on these vehicles, which then cause the basis for your claim against the manufacturer, driver, owner, or operator.
If you were injured or a loved one died in an ATV accident and you suspect they had a vehicle defect, was improperly modified, or there was a design failure to blame, you need to hire our personal injury law firm with decades of experience proving auto accident cases. Our Michigan ATV accident lawyers at The Joseph Dedvukaj Firm have a powerful and long track record of results in these motor vehicle related matters, and we care about helping our clients recover financially and physically from their serious injuries.

The term ATV is commonly used by people, but the real meaning can sometimes be confusing in the view of the law. Whether you call them four-wheelers, quads, or utility vehicles, states like Michigan define an all-terrain vehicle as:
" (b) "ATV" means a vehicle with 3 or more wheels that is designed for off-road use, has low-pressure tires, has a seat designed to be straddled by the rider, and is powered by a 50cc to 1,000cc gasoline engine or an engine of comparable size using other fuels."
The ATV definition plays a critical role in an ATV accident claim to determine the available insurance coverage to pay your damages. We have resolved many ATV cases through negotiated settlement, but some require a trial lawyer to secure a multimillion-dollar jury verdict for the seriously injured victim.
If you have questions about insurance coverage for an incident, we invite you to discuss your situation with ATV accident attorneys in Michigan who have experience with similar situations.

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, there is a decreasing trend reported in recent decades as the number of recreational vehicle injuries.
Most ATV injuries are avoidable by using common sense and proper training. ATV accidents lead to serious injuries, including internal injuries, broken bones, scarring, traumatic brain injury, and spinal injury. The common causes are:
Historically, an inexperienced ATV operator is much more likely to be injured using an ATV vehicle than adults and young children who receive the proper safety training.
Adults have a legal responsibility to implement safety precautions to ensure the safety of children riding ATVs, passengers, and spectators alike. Implementing and enforcing safety rules help reduce ATV accident injuries:
Adults failing to supervise and enforce their responsibilities can be held liable for injuries sustained by children operating an ATV.
An experienced personal injury lawyer can pursue your rights to determine if there is available insurance to cover the damages, especially if the injury occurs at home, campground, or business.
In some cases, ATV injuries may be due to a manufacturing or design defect. You may have a product liability claim against the manufacturer, distributor, or retailer of the ATV vehicle for your injuries or death.
Signs of a product liability claim can be seen when the manufacturer does a product recall, but some product liability can involve a defectively designed ATV vehicle that may become apparent over time as the ATV vehicle is used.
The Michigan ATV accident injury lawyers at The Joseph Dedvukaj Firm take ATV defect claims seriously and are dedicated to work with industry experts in design engineering to help prove our client’s case.

In 2015, the NHTSA published crash statistics document that there are almost 400,000 ATV accidents every year. Many all-terrain vehicle crash cases involve operators without safety equipment during nighttime hours or over rough terrain.
ATV manufacturers do not recommend on-road usage. Even so, many operators drive their all-terrain vehicles illegally on public roads, leading to many severe injuries and fatalities.
According to the Consumer Product and Safety Commission between 1982 and 2018, there were at least 15,744 ATV-related fatalities. Of these fatalities, 3,353 were children younger than 16, about 1 in 5. According to 2018 data from nonprofit the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, in 80-90% of the deaths, the victims did not wear helmets.
Experienced or properly trained ATV riders and passengers could have avoided nearly all of these crashes had they followed basic safety guidelines.
The NHTSA identifies an all-terrain vehicle accident as any scenario driving an ATV that results in minor or severe injuries, property damage, or death. An all-terrain vehicle crash is typically caused by the negligent, wanton, or reckless behavior of the driver or passenger.
Many adults and older children loved the thrill and excitement of driving an all-terrain vehicle on country roads, up hills, and across open plains. However, these vehicles can be difficult to control in uneven or unstable terrain conditions, especially when the ATV rider is traveling at an unsafe speed.
ATV accidents are similar to other outdoor recreational activities, including injuries caused on jet skis, snowmobiles, water skis, and motorcycles.
Many all-terrain vehicle crash cases involve collisions and rollovers that result in severe injuries and fatalities. Most moderate to severe injuries require a visit to the emergency room for an accurate diagnosis that might include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, internal bleeding, broken bones, or organ damage.
A quad (four wheel ATV vehicle) has an inherent design flaw that causes instability on uneven terrain at high speeds. Moving quickly while attempting a turn can cause the vehicle to rollover unexpectedly, creating life-threatening consequences for the driver and passengers.
Quads are considered an exhilarating, expensive recreation. But even a minor injury could leave the operator and passengers in severe harm, with a traumatic brain injury, concussion, spinal injury, cuts, and lacerations. Moreover, as an extreme sport, quads can lead to preventable death.
Most insurance policies do not provide coverage to pay for victims injured in ATV crashes like the compensation for car, truck, and motorcycle accidents. Usually, the victim must find other sources of insurance coverage to pay for your damages.
However, experienced ATV accident lawyers can sometimes find compensation through other means when someone else's negligence caused your ATV injury.
Motorcycles and quad vehicles are designed for different uses and environments. Motorcycles are usually designed for driving public roads such as asphalt and concrete. On the other hand, a dirt bike has knobby tires and special shocks that can hold the off-road terrain better than ATVs, and their design helps them be stable in almost any environment at higher speeds. A dirt bike can go much faster than an ATV because they are lighter and can take sharp curves.
Individuals are more likely to be injured in ATV accidents traveling on dirt than car accidents on paved roads. ATVs are not designed for use on highways. In addition, ATVs are likely more dangerous to drivers and passengers because of their ease of rolling over, tipping over and crashing due to a lack of control, which can lead to severe and permanent injuries.
The ORV accident injury attorneys at The Joseph Dedvukaj Firm have represented children and adults injured in an off-road vehicle crash for many years.
