Why are all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) so dangerous?
The first ATVs that were introduced to the market in 1971 were three-wheelers. So many of these vehicles rolled over and caused injuries, that the U.S. Justice Department sued ATV manufacturers for allegedly violating the Consumer Product Safety Act. But while ATV manufacturers agreed to stop making three-wheelers in 1887, many remain in use today.
