Chapter 2

Eye Protection

Being able to see

clearly will help you ride

more safely. Operating

without eye protection

can result in an acci-

dent and increases your

chances of a severe eye

injury in the event of an

accident.

object

such as a rock, branch

or even a bug that hits

you in the face can distract you; but if you are hit in the eyes, you could

be blinded. Regular sunglasses do not provide enough protection when

riding an ATV. A face shield or goggles will help protect you.

They should be:

• Free from scratches, preferably bearing the standard marking

AS1337, or constructed of a hard-coated polycarbonate.

• Securely fastened.

• Tinted for riding on bright days, clear for night riding or yellow for

overcast days.

Gloves

Gloves should be of the quality that will help prevent your hands from

getting sore, tired or cold, as well as offer protection in the event of a

spill. Off-road style gloves, available at motorcycle and ATV dealerships,

provide the best combination of protection and comfort. They are

padded over the knuckles for added protection. Leather gloves should

be avoided as they stretch and become slippery when wet.

Boots

The minimum protective footwear is a pair of strong, over-the-ankle

boots with low heels to help prevent your feet from slipping off the

footrests. Off-road style over-the-calf ATV or motorcycle boots offer the

best protection for feet, ankles and legs.

Clothing

It is important to protect your skin from scratches. A long-sleeved shirt

or jersey and long pants are minimum requirements for rider protection.

Off-road riding gear, (such as jersey; shoulder pads/chest protector; and

off-road pants with knee and shin pads) provide better protection.
