These death include all ATV riding, racing is not mentioned, but it shows you how dangerous ATV riding can be without proper instruction and supervision.
Scott Wolfson, spokesman for the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, said, "We have data that's showing more than 400 deaths per year with ATVs nationally, and the state of Florida ranks among the top 10 in ATV-related deaths. We have seen an increase in death and injuries as these ATVs have become more popular." That includes 72 deaths in Florida from 2002 through 2004, the last period for which data is available, Wolfson said. About a third of deaths and injuries involve victims under 16. * http://www.sptimes.com/2006/08/15/Tampabay/ATV_usage__injuries_o.shtmlMore info:

The site explained, Kentucky totaled 367 ATV related deaths in 2006 and among those about 30 percent were children under the age of 16. Pennsylvania, California, West Virginia and Texas were the other states with the highest number of ATV related deaths, the site added. "The CPSC outlines several tips like being trained, wearing protective gear, never riding as a passenger or riding with a passenger and not driving under the influence in order to operate ATVs safely," the News said.
