RideSafe Foundation is dedicated to reducing powersports-related injuries and fatalities —particularly for children—by inspiring all riders to care for one another, wear proper gear, complete a safety course, and to ride responsibly.
We are proud to partner with BRP, a major global player in powersports vehicles and watercraft.
We support BRP’s Responsible Rider Program, encouraging the powersports community to rethink how we approach rider safety, the environment, and riding ettiquette.

The Ride Safe Foundation’s interactive map is a powerful and compassionate reminder of our mission to protect young lives in powersports. This map, which tracks known ATV and UTV fatalities involving youth under 16 starting from 2020 to current.
Each pin—blue for male, red for female, and orange when gender is unspecified—represents more than just a statistic; it honors a life tragically cut short. By allowing viewers to toggle through the years, this map serves as both a visual call to action and a heartfelt reminder of the importance of safety. The data behind it, carefully compiled and maintained, reflects our commitment to transparency and our dedication to making a difference.
Every year, OHV crashes injure and kill young riders, leaving lasting impacts on families and communities. Most of these tragedies are preventable when kids, parents, and guardians know what to watch for. RideSafe Foundation’s Five Red Flags identify the warning signs that can help prevent the majority of serious accidents before they happen.
