Unnecessarily loud shitball vehicles and ATVs should be punished by execution. No reason for it other than to be an a-hole.

Then stay the frick away.

I don't think you're getting it. It isn't about not wanting people to have fun. I don't care what you do (short of hurting another person) as long as you shut the frick up while you're doing it.

Just shut up. It's so simple, yet it alludes most everyone and it seems like people can't wrap their head around it. I don't dislike you. I just don't care about you, and I want you to Shut. Up.

Sure, I'm not personally a fan of modded out fmf pipes on atvs or loud arse pipes on trucks/cars. But I must've missed the part where OP said that his four wheeler had an extra loud pipe on it.

You take the ACT as a 7th grader or in HS. No one takes in the 8th grade. Also, your son didn’t score a 29 lol. You didn’t know enough to even lie reasonably. 23 would have been a good lie.

Buddy, there is an entire portion of this nation that drives around with 0 insurance. In actual cars, causing more problems for regular folks than a 14 year old kid on a four wheeler.


While that’s true, I somewhat suspect when this OP’s angel of a teenager who can’t follow simple rules does eventually get hurt doing something dumb (rolls over in a neighbor’s ditch, hits a culvert, gets hit by a vehicle, etc) that the OP will be on here within minutes of the injury seeking advice for the best billboard lawyer to sue his neighbor or vehicle owner who has insurance.

God forbid a kid have any fun. Might upset the fricking neighbors.

Agree. People typically choose a neighborhood for for family atmosphere and school district. In our hood, I have witnessed parents complain about everything from kids riding dirt bikes to playing in the creek to making too much noise at the pool and basketball/tennis courts.

These are the same people that bitch about why kids are inside playing video games and not outside playing and being a kid.

Here's a summary. Look up more details if you feel the need. Is he licensed? (Don't bother answering)

RS 32:299


§299. Off-road vehicles; authorization for use on the shoulders of certain public roads and highways; authorization for use on certain public property

A.(1) Off-road vehicles, including but not limited to three-wheelers, four-wheelers, or other all-terrain vehicles which are not specifically designated for road use may travel on the shoulders of all public roads and highways except interstate highways in the manner provided for in this Section solely for the purposes of farm-related activities within a five-mile radius of a farmer's farm, provided that the operator possesses a valid Class "E" driver's license. The owner or operator of the off-road vehicle shall carry a copy of the motor vehicle registration, upon his person or on the off-road vehicle, to prove he owns at least one motor vehicle which is registered as a vehicle engaged in the business of actual farming under the provisions of R.S. 47:462. As an alternative to the ownership of the motor vehicle, the operator of the off-road vehicle may carry a sworn affidavit attesting that he is engaged in the business of actual farming under the provisions of R.S. 47:462. Any agricultural consultant as defined in R.S. 3:3202 may also operate off-road vehicles for the purposes of farm-related activities within a five-mile radius of a farmer's farm.

(2) Off-road vehicles may travel on the shoulders of all public roads or highways, except interstate highways, during each day starting thirty minutes after sunrise and ending thirty minutes before sunset. Incidental crossing of public roads or highways shall be authorized.

(3) Off-road vehicles may be operated by university or college employees, law enforcement officers, and certified emergency technician-paramedics in the course and scope of their employment while on streets within the boundaries of state-owned colleges and universities. Incidental crossings of public roads or highways are authorized.

B. The provisions of this Section do not relieve drivers or operators of the responsibility to comply with all the other applicable provisions of R.S. 32:298 and 301. However, the provisions of R.S. 32:190 shall not apply to this Section.

C. Operators of off-road vehicles shall provide, upon demand, proof that the off-road vehicle is covered by valid liability insurance and other proof required in this Section.

D. The provisions of this Section shall not apply to roads and highways in Orleans Parish.

Acts 1998, 1st Ex. Sess., No. 98, §1, eff. May 5, 1998; Acts 2001, No. 518, §1; Acts 2010, No. 236, §1.

Yes, but I wasn't responding to anything the OP said. I was responding to something the other poster said about not wanting four wheelers in rural areas.

You seem really ridiculously upset about a kid driving a four wheeler. If it makes you that mad, that's a you problem.

I don't think it is legal for a 4-wheeler to be on any public road or highway, regardless of who is driving.

It’s not anywhere in the country as far as I know. I don’t normally see four wheelers on the roads where I am, but it’s not uncommon to see UTV’s. Of course year round population here is about 1500 people and no one cares.
