All-Terrain Vehicle-related crashes among children and young adults: A systematic review of the literature with illustrative case report

Original language description

All-terrain vehicle (ATV) by its design, represent a highly dangerous mode of transportation. Pediatric ATV crashes were at least 30 times more likely than four-wheeled vehicles crashes and almost 20 times more likely than motorcycle crashes. ATV ridersare highly vulnerable road participants who are exposed to severe, often multiple injuries. Relative to automobiles, ATVs, due to their imperfections, pose a greater hazard of death or serious injury to operators and passengers. The most common mechanismof crashes is rollover, hitting a stationary object followed by hitting a moving vehicle. While lower extremity injuries most commonly occur in ATV-related crashes, head injuries are most frequent in fatal crashes. The operators who are killed often arechildren and young adults, too young to legally operate all-terrain vehicles. The aim of this paper is to highlight some of the medico-legally important aspects of fatal and survived ATV crashes illustrated by an analysis of a case invol
