Karnes, Edward W., Leonard, S. David and Newbold, Herbert C. (1988): Safety Perceptions and Information Sources for ATVs. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 32nd Annual Meeting 1988. pp. 938-942.

“Safety issues concerning all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) have become important for human factors professionals, because of the need to reduce the accidents and injuries associated with their use. Human factors experts have also been called upon to testify in legal suits occasioned by some accidents. This paper discusses some of the problems associated with the safety of ATVs and presents data concerning riders and observes ability to estimate their speed. Speed estimates are lower than actual speeds at low speeds and higher than actual speeds at high speeds. It is concluded that information about the speed capabilities of ATVs is important consumer information and should be made conspicuous in advertising and other informational channels about ATVs.”
