Managing Farm Safety and Health Video Series - ATV Safety
A Quad Bike is a fantastic aid for farm work as it is designed to cope with a wide variety of terrain types, but if it is operated unsafely it quickly creates significant risks of death or severe injury to the operator.
The underlying causes of accidents include lack of formal training and experience; poor maintenance; poor physical mobility; carrying a passenger; tipping over on a bank, ditch or rut; loss of control on steep slopes or towering excessive loads.
Professional safety training must be undertaken by all quad operators, and children under the age of 16 must not be allowed to ride quads in any workplace.
Quads should always be operated with care and at a safe speed.
