IRVINE, CALIF., June 26, 2017 – Celebrating Independence Day with off-road adventures is a wonderful way to appreciate our nation’s outdoors with family and friends, and the Recreational Off-Highway Vehicle Association is reminding drivers to be responsible and safe when operating their ROVs.
“ROVs, also known as side-by-sides, are a great way to create memories with family and friends, but it is just as important to drive them responsibly,” said ROHVA Executive Vice President Erik Pritchard. “We want to remind drivers and passengers to follow the ROV Safety Rules, which helps keep everyone safe, preserve our trails and lets enthusiasts get the most out of their vehicles.”
ROHVA also encourages dealers, media and enthusiasts to help encourage safe driving by embedding ROHVA’s Safety Rules graphics on their websites and social media posts to get the message in front of drivers.
The ROHVA’s Safety Rules graphics can be downloaded from the library on rohva.org. Be sure to hyperlink the images to rohva.org when embedding them on websites.
