"Not all owners of these vehicles are irresponsible, of course. Many, perhaps most, go off road only in designated areas and seek to minimize any damage they might do. ORV groups such as Tread Lightly! (
www.treadlightly.org) and Leave No Trace (
www.lnt.org) that encourage responsible use receive strong support from the ORV industry as well as the hundreds of private ORV clubs around the country."
This is the side that needs to be seen. It's the same situation with environmentalist and Green Peace. Green Peace becomes the poster child of environmentalism thought it is only a very small, very extreme piece. Possibly if they opened more off-road parks or areas, ones that can be managed, this "thrill seeking crowd" would dwindle. Nothing new, right?
