Seat belt rule for ATVs in Minnesota aims to reduce injuries

A new Minnesota law requiring seat belt use in off-road vehicles (OHVs) and All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) took effect on July 1.

The law mandates that all occupants must wear seat belts when these vehicles are operated on or within the right-of-way of a public road. The Minnesota Safety Council and Minnesota Network of Employers for Traffic Safety (NETS) have developed resources to help riders understand the new requirements.
