If you're an ATV owner, you've probably read all the regulations and rules regarding safety and safety equipment and you know whether or not your State requires helmets to be worn when riding (even if your State doesn't, it's just intelligent to wear protective gear when riding) but do you need to register your ATV?
There is a difference between getting a title and registering your ATV. A title means you own your ATV and that piece of paper proves it. A registration makes your ATV legal to ride on publicly owned lands, roads and most federally managed forests require ATV registration.
Contact your local Department of Transportation to find out if your ATV needs to be registered in your State. It can mean a ticket and a ruined day of ATVing not knowing, so get a jump on the law and find out the facts before your and get caught unaware.
Most registrations take place either throught the Department of Transportation or the Department of Revenue for most States that require it. The fees for registering your ATV can range from $10 up to $45, but remember that is still less than a citation for riding an unregistered ATV.
Certain States require that your ATV be registered on a yearly basis and collect a small percentage of tax based on your ATV registration fee. For most States, these fees go for the upkeep of federally managed lands (such as National Forests) and other conservation programs to keep the ATV trails and riding areas open.
Know the laws of your State for registering your ATV and don't get caught not knowing!
