ATVs: A Mans World

ATV: The world of human publicity is everywhere. You can watch it on TV, newspapers, magazines, and on the internet. As you turn around, you are there. The problem is that people regard it as the truth. When people see propaganda, they do not "see" publicity, they see a beautiful new sports utility vehicle with "powerful engine" and "cool rim". When advertisements use promotions, it is overlooked and readers fall into traps set for themselves. People see what their particular advertising designers want them to see.

All terrain vehicles are electric off-road vehicles equipped with three or four low-pressure tires, straddle seats and handlebars. Almost all ATVs are single passengers. Despite the strict warning given to the operator's manual and multiple passengers of the ATV itself, carrying passengers seems to be a common way. For example, in a survey of young students in Iowa state, more than 90% of those who drank ATV reported that they took passengers. Other studies have shown that ATVs with the same high reporting rate have multiple drivers ranging from 50% to 88%. Furthermore, according to a household survey owned by National ATV, an average of five hours passenger is on board every 10 hours from the operation of ATV. Many people do not seem to be aware of the dangers of multiple passengers on the ATV, or they do not perceive them completely.

Manufacturers think that it is safe to use ATV as designed. However, in previous studies, it has been found that the length and position of the ATV seat of the manufacturer (ATV for sports and commercial vehicles) and the manufacturer are significantly different. The difference between the length of the seat of the shortest seat and the seat of the longest seat is almost twice (19.8 inches vs. 37.0 inches), and in the previous focus group, a longer seat car can invite passengers and get on with others I believe. Promote social activities. The length and location of some ATV models may be a good starting point for improving seat design criteria - adults can operate normally, not children, the seat does not extend beyond the rear axle To This seat design is an important step to improve safety and reduce the possibility of ATV passengers.

Abstract: The conventional all terrain utility vehicle (ATV) is designed for single riders. Although mannedness is known as a risk factor for injury, the contribution of passengers to ATV crashes is not well understood yet. To address this problem, we conducted a retrospective chart review of the ATV crash victims at the US trauma center (2002-2013). Of the 537 cases, 20% were drivers with passengers or passengers. Rollover, fall / discharge, collision at the slope, and the possibility of serious collision with the car when there are passengers. In contrast, the possibility of automatic launching or falling / launching on the handlebars is determined by the self-fire head and the possibility of falling / launch with the lowest highest limb damage score in all launches . If you strike the handlebar or the back, the injury score of the head becomes worse than the shot side.
