What is an Off-Highway Vehicle (OHV)?

An OHV can be just about any motor vehicle such as a pickup truck, sport utility vehicle (SUV), four-wheel drive vehicle, all-terrain vehicle (ATV), dirtbike, dune buggy, sand rail, and snowmobile. OHVs may be used to access a particular destination (camping) or be used as the essential part of the recreation experience (dirt biking). Download new OHV brochure (PDF Document 1.8 MB PDF)
