If at any point while traversing a slope you feel that your ATV is starting to tip over, what should you do?

  1. Accelerate

  2. Dismount the ATV on the downhill side

  3. Dismount the ATV on the uphill side

  4. Stop and wait

The correct answer is: Accelerate

If at any point while traversing a slope you feel that your ATV is starting to tip over, it is advised to accelerate. Accelerating can help shift the ATV's weight forward, potentially helping to regain stability and prevent a tip-over. This action can help you navigate the slope more safely and avoid potential accidents. Remember that accelerating should be done cautiously and in moderation to avoid any sudden movements that could make the situation worse. It is important to note that dismounting the ATV on either side while it is tipping over can be dangerous, as you could potentially get caught under the ATV or in its path. Simply stopping and waiting may not address the immediate risk of a tip-over, while accelerating can actively work towards resolving the issue.
