DPS troopers said the ATV involved in Sunday’s crash was not street legal, WFAA reported. Troopers are seeing this “very dangerous trend” across the state of Texas, according to Sergeant William Lockridge.
"While this is a tragedy, we want to take this as a teaching moment to let people know, these things are fun, they're a lot of fun, but they're not built to be on public roadways,” the sergeant explained.
