Riding Rules

Now you’re ready to learn about riding your POLARIS ATV. There are some things you can do and some things you must never do. Rules are very important when you’re driving an ATV. Adults have riding rules, too. Rules help keep us safe when we ride.

NOTE
The adult with you is your teacher. Always pay attention to what your teacher says so you can learn how to drive safely.

WARNING
Always follow the safe riding rules found in the next few pages. You, or those around you, could be seriously hurt if safe riding rules are not followed.

Riding Gear

NOTE
Always wear proper clothing and safety gear when riding your ATV.

Helmet: Your helmet is very important for safe riding. Helmets prevent severe head injuries.

Eye Protection: Always wear shatterproof goggles or helmet face shield. Always keep them clean so you can see where you’re driving.

Gloves: Wear gloves to protect your hands from sun and wind. Gloves also protect your hands from possible scrapes and scratches.

Boots: Wear sturdy over-the-ankle boots to keep feet dry. Boots protect your feet and ankles from possible scrapes and scratches.

Clothing: Make sure your clothing fits properly. If too small, it could keep you from moving easily when shifting your weight. If too big, it could hang down and get caught in your ATV’s moving parts. Wear long sleeves and long pants to protect arms and legs from injury.

Rules to Remember

  • Always attach the tether strap to your right wrist and to the ATV before riding.

  • Always know where you’re going to drive before you start your ATV. Make sure your ATV’s surrounding area is safe.

  • Your ATV is designed for one rider. Never carry a passenger. A passenger will make the ATV harder to drive. You could lose control and hurt yourself and your passenger.

  • Always remain seated while driving your ATV.. Keep both hands on the handlebars and both feet on the footrests.

  • Always be alert and pay attention to where you’re driving. Pay attention to other drivers, and take more care around them because you cannot predict what they’re going to do.

  • Never follow another ATV too closely. You need plenty of time and space to stop your ATV.

  • Never tow or pull an object behind the ATV.

  • Never ride without adult supervision. An adult should always be watching in case you need help. Always drive within the sight of an adult.

  • Never ride on public trails.

  • Never ride your ATV on roads or over railroad tracks. Your ATV makes noise that may prevent you from hearing cars, trucks or trains that may be coming toward you.

  • Never ride at night. Your ATV is not equipped with lights that are safe for driving in the dark.

  • Learn where lakes, rivers, ponds and ditches are located in your driving area. Stay away from them.

  • Never ride on frozen water. Driving on ice could result in serious injury or death. All ice can be dangerous!

  • Only ride your ATV in safe areas where you have permission to drive. Be careful of things around you.

  • Always be a polite driver. (Don’t drive through the flower garden or over the little trees you planted!).

  • Always do your best to help take care of nature.

Respect your ATV.
Respect your environment.
You will earn the respect of everyone.
Enjoy riding your new POLARIS ATV!
