In beautiful and sunny California your ATV regulations are easy to establish and follow. Of course ATVs owned by California residents must be registered with the California Department of Motor Vehicles and display a registration tag in order for you to meet the ATV regulations. Prior to expiration of your registration a notice will be sent to you as a reminder to help keep you in line with ATV regulations.
In compliance with ATV regulations your vehicle must be equipped with spark arrester and your vehicle must comply with the noise regulations as set forth by the ATV regulation of the state sound test. To find how to do this and make sure ATV regulations are met for your vehicle you can call 800 622-7733 for the proper information and how to go about getting your ATV tested. Safety helmets are needed for all operators of ATVs and absolutely no passengers riding on your off the road vehicle.
ATV operators under the age of 18 must have an appropriate safety certificate or be supervised by an adult who has a safety certificate to keep you legal and meeting ATV regulations. The state of California asks that you stay on all designated trails and roads and do not short cut any tails and ride through the brush.
With a little bit of research and diligence on your part you will be riding the trails and roads of California. Just keep in mind and always consider the ATV regulations that the State of California has established.
