A 34-year-old man was killed in Williamson County yesterday when he accidentally drove his all-terrain vehicle (ATV) into trees. The man was reported missing by his friends on Sunday, and his body was found two hours later. The accident took place in Hurst, about ten miles northeast from Carbondale. Police are currently investigating the incident.

This type of accident shows the serious nature of ATV accidents.  An ATV accident can result in serious injury and even death in many cases.   These types of accidents are even more tragic when it is found that the vehicle contained a flaw or defect which led to the accident.
