Gillentine-Green has seen several ATV accidents result in deaths over the past year.
State Rep. Dannie Reed of Ackerman is planning to refile a bill in the upcoming session to require safety practices and encourage safety education.
A similar bill died in the last legislative session.
Reed's proposed bill would require drivers of all-terrain vehicles on public roads or public land to wear a crash helmet. It also would set a minimum-age requirement. The number of riders allowed on a vehicle also would be limited.
