Title: Croom today
Post by: AmericanRobster on December 26, 2006, 11:37:12 PM
My girlfriend and went out to Croom today. Most of the place was busy for the most part of the day and soon died down. I was very outraged to see people riding 2 up on an ATV only made for one person, and young kids driving ATVs that were way to big for them to handle. Where are the park rangers to bust people like this?

On a coffee break probably ;).  You can always get a siren for your quad and pull them over.  :D

Unfortunately there isn't much in the way of enforcement of the rules to keep everyone safe. I know a guy that ended up having surgery on his hand due to an underage rider on a larger sport quad not being able to handle the machine and hitting him broadside. If you run on the road they'll tell you no to, and you're supposed to wear a helmet but other than that few riding rules about safety are monitored. I've even seen people hauling ass in the parking lot with no helmets on, and a few idiots think the parking lot is their personal play place to practice their wheelies. I'm with you, the basic stuff needs to be enforced to keep everyone safe. with that said I've seen a woman on a quad with what appeared to be no more than a 3 month old in a harness going down the whoops with no helmet on at ONF. Just shows their are fools everywhere.

Why not just have volunteers that go around yelling at the rule breakers?  haha.

Also, I forgot to mention the idiots that I saw doing wheelies in the parking lot. With all of the rain we had recently Croom was wet.
