Here are a few tips from Assurance Groupe V\u00e9zina.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>When you&#8217;re well-informed, you&#8217;re well-prepared<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Regulations for riding an ATV<\/strong> vary from region to region. Before you hit the road, you should take a look at the regulations in force at your destination. For example: In Quebec, ATV riders must purchase civil liability insurance for a minimum value of $500,000 for damage caused to others. The SAAQ does not compensate ATV riders for injuries sustained in an accident, except when a moving vehicle is involved. It&#8217;s best to take out insurance to cover bodily injury or property damage.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Know where you&#8217;re going!<\/strong> Follow the F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Qu\u00e9b\u00e9coise des Clubs Quads&#8217; trails when planning your itinerary.
