ATV Accidents in New Hampshire
Accidents involving all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) are unfortunately common across New Hampshire, especially in more remote or wooded regions like Fitzwilliam. With rugged trails and construction access roads, these areas are often frequented by recreational riders—but they also pose unique dangers.
Saturday’s crash on Jock Page Rd highlights the risks ATVs present, particularly when used in off-road environments where terrain can change rapidly. The reported head injury in this incident emphasizes the importance of proper safety measures, including wearing helmets and maintaining situational awareness. While it’s not yet known if the injured man was wearing protective gear, such equipment can make a significant difference in the severity of injuries during an ATV crash.
Data from the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department shows that adult riders continue to be involved in the majority of ATV-related injury incidents. Many of these occur during solo rides, and often in locations where help is not immediately accessible.
Injuries from ATV crashes frequently require long-term medical attention and recovery time. Victims and their families may also face emotional strain and financial uncertainty—especially if the injured person is unable to work or requires specialized care.
