Is it legal to operate an ATV on the roadway in Wisconsin?

Yes, always
No, never
Only on designated roadways
Only if you have a special permit

The correct answer is: Only on designated roadways

In Wisconsin, operating an ATV on roadways is permitted only on designated roadways. This means that ATVs can be used on certain roads that are specifically designated for their use, typically where local ordinances allow for their operation. These designated roadways often include certain types of highways or local roads that have been marked for ATV use. To ensure safety and compliance with the law, it is critical for riders to be aware of local regulations, as the availability of designated roadways can vary greatly depending on the municipality. The other choices do not reflect the regulations accurately; ATVs cannot be operated freely on all roadways, nor is there a blanket prohibition, or a requirement for a special permit for all uses. Understanding these specific designations is key for responsible and legal ATV operation in Wisconsin.
