St. John’s ATV Accident Lawyers

All-terrain vehicles (ATVs) offer an adventurous way to discover the landscapes of Newfoundland. However, like any motorized vehicle, ATVs carry inherent risks, and accidents are not uncommon. NOVA Injury Law is here to help in these situations.  

The aftermath of ATV accidents can be severe, ranging from minor injuries to permanent disabilities and fatalities. Alongside physical repercussions, ATV accidents can impose considerable emotional and financial burdens on those affected and their families.  

The Off-Road Vehicles Act 

in Newfoundland, all off-road vehicles are regulated by the Off-Road Vehicles Act and the Off-Road Vehicles Regulations. These pieces of legislation set out various requirements for off-road vehicles, including minimum age requirements, where you can ride, insurance, and other safety obligations. Under the Act, riders of off-road vehicles, including ATVs, must have a minimum of $200,000 in liability insurance.  

How Does Liability Work in an ATV Accident? 

If another person is at fault for an accident, you have the right to seek compensation. Similar to any other accident scenario, establishing liability can be complex. In ATV accidents, various parties may bear responsibility, including the driver, owner, manufacturer, or the entity responsible for trail maintenance. At NOVA Injury Law, our job is to identify all liable parties to secure you the compensation you deserve.  

How can NOVA Injury Law Help You? 

The majority of ATV riders opt to use designated routes and trails specifically designed for ATV  use. These trails often feature intersections where serious accidents can occur if any party fails to yield. However, ATV accidents can transpire due to various factors, such as impaired driving,  distracted driving, poorly maintained trails, and mechanical failures.
