Just because you appear to be more stable on a quad than a two-wheeler don't assume you are. Use Your Head It is almost incomprehensible that the Government hasn't enforced a law to wear a helmet. Head protection is vital. Every single person who has died in a quad accident has been helmet-less at the time of the accident and there's no excuse not to wear a lid when there are such great and fashionable choices available.Bikesure strongly recommends that a helmet is worn at all times, so the owners can stay safe. It also recommends that a specialist-training course be undertaken before getting behind the controls. "Lantra" has 300 training sites, with at least one in every region of the country. Their courses include theory, use of controls, instruction on agricultural and road use. "EASI" offers a "Ridercourse" which is a basic course for novice riders and is off road oriented. Parents should make sure that they advise their kids of the dangers and give them adequate training and good advice. You need to kit yourself out in the same protective clothing that you would wear on a motorcycle - a strong jacket and trousers with protectors, gloves and robust footwear. Again, this is not obligatory, but absolute common sense and a firm Quadsure recommendation. |
