What's with the ATV crowd in PA and what should I do about it?

Submitted by Griff82 t3_y8vjiz in Pennsylvania

We live in an ATV hotbed up here in the corner of PA. Lots of bar to bar traffic and general nuisance riding on the roads goes on but yesterday two side by sides came through our unposted fenced property and out our driveway. My wife is working from home and went out on the deck to see what was up but they ignored her and continued on their way. I'm pro-hunting and have given permission to one guy with health issues to drive to his stand but I do not want my quiet place to turn into a 4 wheeler high traffic area. We don't have a local cop as we freeload off PSP here, so I'd rather not go down that road because it's a waste of resources. What should I do besides tightening fences? I don't want to post my place because it abuts the Gamelands.

You can get custom posted signs, just make one that says no ATV/UTVs. I'm wondering if your drive is a trail on some maps. Alot of these maps use AI to generate the maps and they make mistakes.

srpayj t1_it22zjs wrote

Yes check this. Google maps has lots of private lanes and drives shown in rural PA. I am guessing they are on township maps.

Unfortunately in rural areas you have to mark drives/lanes private and post property. The new method using purple paint makes it a lot easier. Not sure how well recognized that is yet.

For the vast majority of the state, that is simply not true. ATV's on PA gamelands is actually one of the most heavily enforced things on the gamelands. You do not want to fuck around with that.

That's been policy since at least somewhere around 2010-2011, maybe earlier. I remember because where I was living at the time had a lot of dirtbike/ATV activity. The cops chased one, the ATV driver hit and injured/killed a pedestrian trying to flee, and now here we are.

I'll agree that Philly is a total shitshow right now but it can't all be laid at Kenney's/Krasner's feet. PPD has been completely useless for a looooong time. Living at that same place I heard a woman get kidnapped, screaming for her life as her voice faded away with the vehicle she'd been dragged into. I called 911 several times with no answer so I called the police district. Their reaction was literally "what do you want us to do about it?" This was over ten years ago. Around the same time I was robbed at gunpoint west of Drexel campus and the police insisted on filing it as a theft, not a robbery. I can go on and on and on.

edit: and for the record I voted for both of them and I'm really disappointed in them both. I'm seriously disappointed in our city from top to bottom, honestly

They may have been lost or had a reason they needed to get to a real road ASAP. I was up in Snowshoe RTT and got off trail once and ended up on someone’s private road by accident. I got out of there as quickly and quietly as possible. I get lost around my house on my dirtbike all the time. This also happened to me on my mountain bike, and I just had to get to a road since I was miles off course and getting really thirsty. Hopefully this was a one time event for you.

ho_merjpimpson t1_it2u0bi wrote

i will second this. In many high atv traffic areas there can be unwritten rules between land owners that posted signs are for other uses... hunting, etc... and atv trails are open for all unless specifically posted. for example, in the area we own land, posted signs are essentially ignored outside of hunting season, and between a few dozen landowners there is a huge network of atv trails that goes through all the different properties. during hunting season, we know to stay to our own properties.

now, you put up a "no atv's past this point" sign... well, then things change. that means you dont ride on that property, or down that trail unless you have permission.

so id suggest putting up a sign specific saying no ATV/UTV's first. might you get a couple random morons? sure. but that is going to happen no matter what outdoor activity people are doing. hiking, biking, hunting, atvs...

mudclog t1_it3pyhb wrote

Definitely check openstreetmap. A lot of other apps will use openstreetmap data, so if there's a trail on there it will show up elsewhere. If it's your property you can delete the trails or mark them as private.

2 options before calling the police. Post your land up with signage. If that does not work, grab a chainsaw and block their access.

CatOfTheDecade t1_it29cdj wrote

I just want to stress this: blocking access with trees or other "normal", visible obstructions is 100% fine. Also do the purple paint thing and follow up with "no trespassing" signs.

There are a lot of SGL near me and in the off seasons I do a lot of hiking through there. There are several property owners, both private and industrial, that abut the SGLs and they are slathered with purple paint and signage. It is impossible to stumble onto their property accidentally.

Whenever posts like this come up, idiots will chime in with "hurr durr, hang a cable or piano wire across the trail, it's private property so legally you can do whatever you want". Do not listen to them. This is illegal. Regardless of whether or not it actually kills anyone, you'll wind up with criminal charges and a SUBSTANTIAL civil lawsuit, which you will unconditionally lose. Your homeowners insurance will not defend you.

One of the few things that has stuck with me from law school and preparing for the bar lo these many years ago, is that there is a very low duty of care to trespassers upon your land, but there is a duty to warn of "known, man-made deathtraps", even to people on your land illegally. So, yeah, no booby-traps.

35

wagsman t1_it2ikpo wrote

What if you put up adequate signage saying there are man-made deathtraps all over this property?

9

JR-Dubs t1_it2kco1 wrote

Setting up booby traps is illegal. No matter what. When I say "known man made death traps", I mean something like the following (which is a case I actually had): A deep, but narrow trench cut on someone's land is covered by high grass that is cut at the end of the season and then the property got covered in snow, making the trench completely invisible. Man walks dog on the property (trespassing), dog got loose, while the guy was chasing the dog he fell into the trench and suffers serious injuries.

If you set up a bunch of punji traps on your property, not only are you going to get sued if someone gets injured, you're probably also going to get arrested, regardless of signage.

This all comes with the admonishment that this is not legal advice and you should not rely on it for anything except, maybe, entertainment purposes.

pitchforksNbonfires t1_it277tb wrote

Get a camera. Put up private property and no trespassing signs that are plainly visible.

You also might want to talk to a lawyer.

Anyone on your property is potentially your liability. Although those ATV’s are supposed to be registered, titled and insured, it’s likely that some are not.

The DNR website states that all law enforcement in PA are authorized to enforce the Snowmobile/ATV law, including state police.

You might not want to call them, but if there’s an accident or an incident on your property they will need to respond. It’s their job to cover rural areas when there’s no local PD.

There also must be a sheriff’s office that’s in your county.

^^ This^^.

IANAL, but almost certain if you don't have visible "Private property, NO atvs (+add what ever else)" signs, then YOU technically ARE responsible for "whatever happens" on said property. Might be worth the few hundo to consult w/property attorney, even if just for liability purposes.

As a Philadelphian, I'm shocked at how much I relate to this problem, here it's city streets instead of private property and gamelands, but we have large groups of dirt bikes and ATVs mucking up traffic and scaring people every time the weather is nice. We have a ton of cops, but they're unable or unwilling to do anything about it. Wish you luck.

hhayn t1_it2jwa6 wrote

They’re two totally different scenarios, tho I am not sure which is worse. If I were this guy, I’d be super pissed because they’re driving over my property and it’s pretty much only affecting me. On the other hand, the swarms of ATV and dirt bike riders that we have downtown are definitely much more dangerous.. but danger isn’t localized to my property and I might never even encounter the swarm personally. In both scenarios the likelihood they are armed is high.

Personally, I have no position on either issue because neither has arisen in a way that negatively impacts my life or the lives of anyone I know.

Finrodsrod t1_it31l3t wrote

That's cause they're super easy to steal or even buy since they don't require registration, and those dopes probably don't have driver's licenses. It's super easy to out run and maneuver cops on a dirt bike.

Nah, that PSP budget is paid for from the motor vehicle fund, which is supposed to be for critical infrastructure maintenance. Municipalities that don't pay for local cops and rely on PSP instead are robbing the state of crucial budget for reliability and safety on our roadways.

That's fine, then start taxing those areas that want to do that. Wolf was trying to do that but the state wasn't having it.

It's annoying because the rest of the state is footing the bill even more than we already do from a pool of money that's desperately needed. When Leslie was still the PennDOT Sec, she told me PennDOT would need TRIPLE the funding they currently have just to tread water on bridge maintenance (and like 50% of our bridges are structurally deficient as it is).

And now they have even less because some small towns want police and don't want to pay for it.

ChuanFa_Tiger_Style t1_it4e0xv wrote

Yeah, I mean there are models out there that other states use to manage the law in large rural areas. This isn't rocket science.

But like I'm saying, the problem with making it the responsibility of, say, county sheriffs is that county sheriffs offices end up becoming corrupt as fuck and people get hurt. Imagine predatory sheriffs offices detaining tourists from the city, rinse, repeat.

There's got to be a better way.

Legally, if there’s no barrier to entry and no signage it’s not trespassing until you tell them not to enter your property yourself. At that point if they re enter your property, it’s trespassing. Put up signs and do the purple markers between them. Most responsible ATVers respect that sort of thing.

Posted signs will only stop the honest people. Atv Kids (this is a separate Group from the others) these days have no respect for peoples property.

You can’t really raise a fuss about it either without ruining it for the honest ones.

I love when people say "kids these days". Kids never had respect for where they rode their quads. Back in the 80's we rode wherever we could' private, state land, wherever...

OP, having land that abuts State Game lands is even more reason to post your land. People might not know they crossed into private. Where I live almost everyone posts their property.

JohnDeere714 t1_it33lqc wrote

Depends on the people who taught them to ride. I’ve ridden with people who asked for permission before even stepping foot on land, picked up trash and fixed things as they went. There’s good riders out there.

I’m saying kids because that’s the issue my area is having is kids tearing up and destroying equipment which is causing land that old timers rode on to get closed down.

The spring/summer after my first winter in my house, I had to put up a fence, strategically placed boulders and have trees planted around my property to keep people off.

I opted to forego calling local police or ask people to stop, ect. Dealing with small town folks can be tricky, and every town has their own unwritten social rules. Since I own this home and knew I plan to live here probably forever, I wanted to keep things smooth and not ruffle feathers as the "newcomer."
I was also single young woman at the time. I didn't want to set myself up for any trouble, either. Paying for some landscaping was easiest and seemed natural for a new homeowner to do anyway. I haven't had any problems with people coming on my property since.
