A statewide law has been amended to increase safety awareness in OHV riding areas. All OHV operators, regardless of age, must be able to reach and operate all vehicle controls to safely operate the OHV. Additionally, effective January 1, 2010, officers may cite the parent or other adult responsible for a child under 14 years old, for allowing that child to operate an inappropriately sized OHV when it can be demonstrated the child cannot reach and operate all vehicle controls necessary to safely operate the OHV.
