Quad Bike Safety – 2012.
In 2012, the Health and Safety Aus/NZ/USA concluded that the manufacturers’ decision to oppose CBDs (Roll Bars) has been demonstrated and established now to be invalid and recommended that Roll Bars be installed on all Quad Bikes as the danger of not having one installed and the chances of serious injury or death are clear and tragic.
