What is more dangerous for kids 4-wheelers or dirt bikes?
Dirt bikes are safer for several reasons. Dirt bikes are more like riding regular bikes, which is something that most kids know how to do. The turning of a bike and dirt bike is done less with handlebars and more with a leaning motion. This helps to change the center of gravity, and place the weight of the rider away from the bike when a fall starts. Dirt bikes tend to not fall on the rider during a fall, and if they do, it tends to be less of the bike. In the case of quads and trikes, the rider is almost always confined within an imaginary box located very close to the bike. Falls on quads and trikes tend to be rollover type injuries.
