im a happy camper seems as if C.O. just happened to pull up on a group of riders on Berkshire valley rd in Jefferson they got nailed finally but it hasnt been the 1st time for them getting caught. It has been a regualr thing for them as the 1 C.O. told me the Officer patroling this area has a zero tollerance for this activity and will aggressively respond to any complaints as i was pulling away it seems as if dad was getting searched hands up spread out against car. SO big thumbs up to the officer for catching them
A.T.V.s and C.O.s.

Under Title 39 this is true... IF your Farmland assessed, and are using it for FARM purposes. I AM, and ride on the roads around the Farm, ALL the time. The TROOPERS around here recognize this and don't bother us. We're also just puttering from Farm to Farm on 4X4 quads. Let a 2 wheel drive racing quad rip past then, and they would be on him right away.

I think ultimately it comes down to DON'T buy toys you don't have a place to play with. That is as stupid as stupid gets. I have a tiny yard and nowhere to drive a quad. Lets buy one and rip up someone else's property! Well damn, Junior went and broke his arm when he fell off. Guess I'm gonna sue this guy who's property I'm trespassing on. What a joke. I'm so sick of idiots with "I do what I want" mentality's. Stiffer fines and impounding the atvs sounds like the smartest thing they could do.

Under title 39 there is no restriction as to the type of private property you need to ride from or to, just that you have to e able to legally ride on both. Most LEO,s don't fully understand the regulations involving ATV's, thus they sometimes act inappropriately.

WOW last 3 years they screwed up my turkey and deer especially bear hunts. I grew up riding.Started when I was 5.Go carts,my father took me to the midget track in pine brook and watkins glen.When older yes I illegally rode many bikes on powerlines and pipelines.BUT NEVER through hunting grounds.Three years I hunted this particular area by long lake,wasn't only,bikes also the occasional 4 wheeler and they would go off the trails
.It's a wildlife managment area don't even think horses are allowed but they would stay on the trails these kids 15 to 40 did/do not!!
signs everywhere no motor vehicles beyond this point

GFYHey punk put the time and hours into months of bear baiting having 100's of pics of bear on bait to come opening morning about 9am the bastards ripped all through me and my 3 buddys areas bears gone no more pics THINK about it how then would you FEEL?
In most other states they do not sue the state at the drop of the missing helmet because their precious little maggots got hurt on state lands. Given today's litigious society, could you please provide just what states and just what their rules are? New Jersey does not want to catch criminals as they are needed to vote early and vote often for scum like Menendez.

Families having fun illegally are still criminals. Trying to justify illegal activity shows your lack of morals which means your kid has none either. There are tons of activities to do that are legal-- pick one of them.

If you don't have property to ride it on don't buy it!The mentality that I bought a quad so any patch of woods is open game is the norm in this state.Just because your a moron and bought something you can't legally use because you have no property doesn't give you the right to trespass.

I would right next to them doing the same,I ride my atv in a state park as do a number of other people. Even if I made my own trails I don't see the big deal,the woods will grow back if it's not being used. But some people act like the woods will die by riding an atv through it. Like I said if people aren't riding across people's yards and stay in the woods I don't see the issue. I rather my kids ride the atv illegally then hang out at dunkin donuts,or doing drugs because they have nothing to do

So I guess you have never driven above the speed limit. It's the same principal your talking. I understand both sides but you can't say it's bad parenting by taking your kids riding just because it's on state or federal land. Not all people that ride rip it up all over,when I ride I just putz through the woods.
