Welcome to rideATVoregon

 

Effective January 1, 2014, all operators of quads and three-wheel ATVs (Class I ATVs) and off-road motorcycles (Class III ATVs) must have an ATV Safety Education card when operating on lands open to public use. In order to make training as convenient as possible, the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department now offers this free safety education program and certification online on this website.

SAFETY TRAINING EXEMPTION: Safety training isn't mandatory for riders using an ATV or off-road motorcycle for farming, agriculture, forestry, nursery, Christmas tree growing operations or when riding on private land.

How to get your FREE online card

 

1.	Take the online course and pass the test on this website. 1-2 hours.
2.	You will receive a plastic card in the mail. You may print a 30-day temporary card on your home printer.
3.	Carry the card when you are riding.

NOTE: Youth under age 16 have the additional requirement to get hands-on training. At the completion of this online course, youth can print a 6 month Certificate of Completion to practice riding, which gives them plenty of time to find a training course. Click Here for more information.

Mandatory Training Ages

 

All riders must have an ATV Safety Education Card. There is no minimum age to take the online course, though some children may have a difficult time with the course material. We strongly encourage parents to go through the course materials and test with their child/children. One parent may sign up with up to 4 kids under a family account and all will be issued cards upon passing the test. Adults supervising youth must also have the card.

No Internet?

 

If someone does not have access to the internet or for some other reason is physically unable to take the on-line course, please have them call our ATV hotline toll free at 877-772-3359 (877-7SAFELY) for an equivalency course application.
