Yamaha promotes ATV safety <\/h1>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Yamaha has pledged to help improve farm safety by offering free ATV rider competency training from the European All-Terrain Vehicle Safety Institute (EASI\u00ae) to anyone purchasing a new Yamaha ATV. \u201cWe have always advocated training for ATV operators, so to help improve driver competency we offer these courses free of charge with a new ATV,\u201d says Yamaha\u2019s Area Sales Manager, Carl Stuart.<\/p>\n

According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) 2022 report:<\/p>\n

\u2018Agriculture has the worst rate of worker fatal injury (per 100,000) of the main industrial sectors: 21 times higher than the average five-year annual rate across all industries.\u2019*<\/p>\n

Machinery and vehicles accounted for almost half of fatalities (48%). To reduce risk, improve operator competence, and help safeguard workers, the HSE strongly advise that ATV operators complete a training course.<\/p>\n

\u201cATVs, when used properly, can save time and money. Our training courses highlight general machine checks, upkeep, weight distribution and active riding, which is imperative when operating on uneven, rutted terrain which is so often found on farms,\u201d says Amy Morris, EASI UK Regional Operations Manager.<\/p>\n

Taking a basic course to learn riding skills and use the correct equipment can help prevent the risk of accidents. \u201cWith the ever-increasing popularity of ATV\u2019s, many operators have little or no experience. ATVs handle very differently to cars and motorcycles, so it is vitally important that all users should learn how to safely operate an ATV by taking an operator course,\u201d says Mrs Morris.<\/p>\n

The training can be completed in one day and there are 38 centres throughout the UK to do so. EASI advises that all riders, including those with years of experience, make the most of this offer. \u201cEven experienced riders can find themselves in potentially hazardous situations that can, without the correct training and knowledge, result in serious accidents. We welcome this move by Yamaha and hope that its customers will take advantage of this offer,\u201d adds Mrs Morris.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
