The All Terrain Utility Vehicle is used by many park departments for ongoing maintenance in many large city parks. These vehicle include gators and toolcats.  They are also used by fire departments and EMS as they are small and capable machines.  Training is often overlooked since they are small and not as fast as a regular car, seemingly less risky.

It’s often said: “everyone can drive a golf cart”, but these vehicles can be very dangerous if the operator is unfamiliar with their operation.
