Yup, done my good deed for the day. My friend and I were out riding his ATVs in the newly cut corn fields, and we had a track around teh outside that I was riding around, and he stopped, turned around, and kinda hid, like he does a lot, just for fun, and when I get near, he turns his atv on and goes, well, I came near on the track that I was following, and he was just over the hill, but just as I came over the hill he came the other way, but I didnt swerve or anything, he went by bout 10-20 feet away, seemed fine, I just continued my lap around, and when I got about 3/4 around, I stopped and started to look for him, and figured he was hiding again or something. Thats when I saw it, his ATV was lying on its side, and I knew something was wrong, so I gunned the rancher over there, and apparently when he went past me earlier, he had thought it was too close, and swerved, and usually if you turn while giving the atv gas, it will just drift, but he hit a big rut or something, and it caught all of a sudden and bam, flipped.
When I got there, I flipped the atv back, and he got up, nothing bad, just some scrapes and bruises. He said when he was lying under it tho, gas was dripping on him, and the fender was pressing on his lung, starting to sufficate him, so if I had taken a couple minutes longer, it may have been too late. He said he tried flipping the lever to release the fenders, for just this situation, but it would come off. He is not that big a kid, so there was no way he could have gotten out, and even if he did, idk if he could have flipped the atv back, he is like 5' 5" and 95 pounds. But he rides crazy on those atvs, and he said this is the first time he has gotten hurt on them ever. He started with atvs and dirtbikes since he was 2, so he kept good control, time was coming for an accident tho, lol. But he is fine now, except for the stearing column is bent, and he doesnt want to tell his dad that he flipped it. Afraid he will get in trouble or something.
But thats my story, lol.
