The Washington Post did an article called This Isn't Child's Play where they, like so many others, mis-used stats to make a point based on an agenda.
How many children die on bicycles?
How many children die by drowning?
How many children die while walking?
How many children die in cars?
Are you really worried about about kids safety? If you were, you'd be trying to get kids banned from all those activities, not just ATVs. There are kids sized ATVs that are safe for kids. Training and the right equipment helps a lot too.
More than 100 children die every year in ATV crashes, and more than 30,000 are admitted to hospitals, often with devastating injuries.
