Keep ATVs Off Vermont's Roads

The State of Vermont, and likely your Town, is under intense pressure from ATV advocates to open its unpaved public roads, trails, and lands to recreational ATV use. This would mean:

• Increased noise and traffic from both local and out-of-state ATV users. The plan is to make Vermont an 'ATV tourist destination.'
• Children too young to legally drive will be operating ATVs on the same roads as cars and trucks. If you are involved in an accident, you will be liable.
• Increased incidences of drinking and driving -- already a serious problem in Vermont.
• A diversion of law-enforcement officers from other pressing problems in order to police ATV use on our roads.
• Noise and air pollution and environmental damage to our roads, streams, and lands, exposing taxpayers and private landowners to costly liability for damages.
• Contact your local Selectboard, your local legislators, your Governor, and let them know you are concerned and expect them to address your concerns. Please also be sure to print our petition (5KB PDF) or request one from us at our P.O. Box address and COLLECT SIGNATURES!
