Important UTV Safety Gear

While traveling off-road isn’t dangerous, the terrain is typically much more difficult to navigate, and you’ll want to make safety a priority when riding all-terrain. To protect yourself in the event of a crash and help avoid accidents in the future, we recommend investing in some of the helpful UTV safety accessories we’ve listed below.

Seat Harness

UTVs don’t typically come with seatbelts, and seat harnesses are usually offered as an upgrade rather than an included feature. Unfortunately, this can lead even small accidents to result in serious injuries, and we strongly recommend having your model outfitted with a set of seat harnesses before you take your first ride.

Helmet

Your helmet is one of the most important safety accessories you’ll purchase, and we strongly encourage you to research helmet safety standards and how to choose the best option for your needs. Typically, we recommend that UTV owners purchase helmets that have been approved by the Department of Transportation and offer eye protection.

Roll Cage

Roll cages have a ton of unexpected benefits, and we recommend most UTV owners have one installed on their model. Not only do these cages keep you from flying out of the vehicle during a crash, but they also improve the overall durability of a model, which can improve the ride of your UTV.
