FOLLANSBEE — Follansbee Council may adopt an ordinance regulating all-terrain vehicles after hearing concerns from residents about the safety of young riders of them.
On Monday Deputy Police Chief Dan Casto said while residents of the Parkview area have complained of ATVs dragging mud across roads,they seem most bothered that the riders will harm themselves.
Fourth Ward Councilwoman Alexis Russell, who represents Parkview, said drivers have told her they nearly struck the vehicles as they crossed their paths.
