Our experienced team understands the complexities and challenges that come with these types of accidents and is committed to helping you navigate the legal process to secure the compensation you deserve.
Common Causes of ATV and Snowmobile Accidents
ATV and snowmobile accidents can happen suddenly—and often when least expected. These types of collisions are frequently caused by negligence, poor trail conditions, or mechanical issues. Understanding the most common causes can help determine who is at fault and whether you may be eligible for compensation:
- Lack of proper training or experience operating an ATV or snowmobile
- Distracted or inattentive driving
- Speeding or driving too fast for trail or weather conditions
- Reckless behaviour or stunts
- Impaired driving due to alcohol or drugs
Operating an ATV or snowmobile under the influence is illegal in Ontario and throughout Canada, and can lead to serious criminal consequences. It also puts others at significant risk of injury or death.
Compensation for ATV and Snowmobile Accident Victims
Being injured in an ATV or snowmobile accident due to someone else’s carelessness can be devastating. To help you through this difficult time, you may be entitled to compensation. At Bonn Law, we carefully examine how your injuries have affected your life—physically, emotionally, and financially. Our goal is to help you get the support you need to recover and rebuild.
Special Damages
These cover the direct financial impacts of your accident. You may be able to claim for:
- Lost wages due to missed work
- Reduced future earning capacity
- Medical expenses, including emergency care, hospital stays, surgeries, physiotherapy, and ongoing treatment

How We’ve Helped: DesRochers v. McGinnis
One of our notable cases, DesRochers v. McGinnis, highlights our expertise in this area. In this case, our lead lawyer, Kristian Bonn, successfully represented Megan Desrochers, who suffered a severe traumatic brain injury in an ATV accident. The defendants’ insurer refused to settle the case for a fair and reasonable amount. Kristian Bonn took the case to trial and successfully proved that the defendants were negligent. The Ontario Court of Appeal upheld the decision, establishing liability against the defendant and setting a precedent for future cases involving ATV accidents.
