ATV Safety in farm safety refers to the practices and precautions necessary to prevent accidents and injuries when operating all-terrain vehicles on agricultural properties. This includes wearing appropriate personal protective equipment such as helmets approved by the U.S. Department of Transportation, adhering to manufacturer guidelines, and maintaining a safe speed appropriate for the terrain and conditions. Operators should be trained in safe handling techniques, avoid carrying passengers, and perform regular safety checks on the ATV to ensure it is in good working condition. Additionally, awareness of potential hazards like uneven terrain, obstacles, and other farm equipment is crucial to minimize risks.
