Wisconsin ATV Practice Exam

The recommended way to cross a road while riding an ATV is to look both ways and cross at a right angle. This approach helps ensure that the rider is aware of oncoming traffic from both directions, which is crucial for safety. By crossing at a right angle to the road, the rider minimizes the time spent in the road, reducing the risk of an accident. This method emphasizes vigilance and caution, encouraging riders to maintain control and make informed decisions while navigating potential hazards.

Choosing to cross at designated crossing areas enhances safety but may not always be applicable depending on the roadway conditions or the absence of such areas, which is why understanding the fundamental principle of looking both ways and crossing at a right angle is essential for all riders.
