In our travels, we've gathered the personal stories of Westerners who have been directly affected by the activities f reckless ORV riders and why they think visible identification and stricter penalties will help curb this growing problem. Watch and read what others are saying:

- Derrick Reeves, co-chair of Idaho Backcountry Hunters and Anglers
- T.M. Murphy, Tom Sykes, T. Downing, Rick Hooley, and David Petersen, members of the Colorado Backcountry Hunters & Anglers

As of 2009, ORV riders in Arizona are required to display a 4x7” license plate with a registration decal. We cited this law as a model or other states in our 2012 visible identification report. 

This law is helping Arizona Game & Fish law enforcement officers and Sierra Vista police to crack down on illegal riders. 

However, the video below shows that illegal riding is still causing damage in Coconino National Forest. And 17 Low Desert Ranchers recently wrote in the Arizona Republic about how license plates on ORVs can help them stop the riders who are trespassing on their properties and costing them thousands of dollars to repair damage.
