How many more???.??? How many more accidents are we going to watch without saying anything? Quad bikes should be illegal to rent! We are losing tourists because of the bad name. Tourists are suffering, tourists are going back home with life long injuries and tourists are dying so that a couple of persons make money on the rent of such a dangerous bike. We are paying taxes of thousands of Euros in medical expenses so that a couple of people make money on the rent of such a death trap bike! The number of escalating quad bike accidents should awaken the country for action.
