So .... what, he writes this article in hopes that someone in power makes the jump from "ATVs need to be easier to identify" to "ban ATVs altogether from the back country" ? That's a pretty big leap of logic.

Center Line is completely surrounded by Warren, but it's still not Warren. Doesn't matter if it's within Warren, but it's not Warren.

I don't think there should be a national registration to have an ATV, I think this should be left up the manager of the land you ride on. If they want it, fine, and if they don't, fine. But, people can split hairs all day long, but at the end, the only thing that makes real sense is that each land manager is allowed to manager their land, and the ATV/ORVs on it. You want to ride on THEIR land, you register with the, if they require that.


That would be like having to register your car in every county/city/municipality that you drive thru.


or buying a fishing license in ever state you fish in.

Fishing isn't a vehicle.

A fishing license is more akin to a user fee.

It'd be more like having to register your fishing boat in every state in which you fish.
