Quad drivers: Take note before you take off

When people think of farm vehicles, the first ones that come to mind are tractors and all-terrain vehicles (ATVs). These are the cornerstone of transport on many farms.

What an ATV offers compared to other vehicles is increased versatility, in terms of towing and hauling capacity, and the capability to handle multiple terrains with ease, from steep inclines to boggy fields.

These benefits have led to ATVs becoming the workhorse vehicles that farmers depend on for everyday use.

Always remember that the farm is a potentially dangerous work environment so it is important that, when using an ATV, safe use is at the forefront of the mind at all times.

This advice was provided by BRP (Bombardier Recreational Products). It designs, manufactures and distributes motorised professional, recreational and power-sport vehicles.

Its Can-Am brand is known to buyers and users of ATVs and SSVs.
