SEAT BELT/DRIVE RESPONSIBLY WARNING
WARNING
Be Prepared
• Fasten seat belts.
• Wear an approved helmet and protective gear.
• ALWAYS use vehicle cab nets and/or doors if equipped.
• Each rider must be able to sit with back against seat, feet flat on the floor, and
hands on steering wheel or handholds. Stay completely inside the vehicle.
Drive Responsibly Avoid loss of control and rollovers:
• Avoid abrupt maneuvers, sideways sliding, skidding, or fishtailing, and never
do donuts.
• Slow down before entering a turn.
• Avoid hard acceleration when turning, even from a stop.
• Plan for hills, rough terrain, ruts, and other changes in traction and terrain.
Avoid paved surfaces.
• Avoid side hilling (riding across slopes).
Be Sure Riders Pay Attention and Plan Ahead
If you think or feel the vehicle may tip or roll, reduce your risk to injury:
• Keep a firm grip on the steering wheel or handholds and brace yourself.
• Do not put any part of your body outside of the vehicle for any reason.
Rollovers have caused severe injuries and death, even on flat, open areas.
