ASSIGNMENT MESSAGE:
Conduct an in-depth investigation of the ATV fatality reported in the attached document using the ATV Investigation
Guideline of Appendix 91. If you have any special concerns about this investigation, please do not hesitate to call
your headquarters contact.
A narrative write-up for this IDI is not required (including both ATV and UTV incidents), provided the DRS is
completed. If both an ATV and a UTV are involved in the incident being investigated, then both the ATVD and
UTVD DRS should be completed. An on-site investigation is not required for either ATVs or UTV incidents.
If the vehicle involved is a Utility Vehicle [UTV] or Recreational Off-highway Vehicle [ROV] (e.g., the vehicle
has a steering wheel, seatbelt or other restraint, , roll bar, cargo bed, foot pedals, or bench or bucket seats or
side-by-side seating, excluding dune buggies and golf carts), use the Utility Vehicle Guidelines provided at the
end of Appendix 91. UTVs are also known as “side-by-side ATVs” indicating that the seating is side-by-side
instead of straddle.
Below is a list of vehicle make and models where the vehicle is not an ATV and the UTV investigation guidelines should be used. Please note
this is not a comprehensive list of all makes and models of UTVs, but a list to help facilitate the identification of common UTVs.
