State officials are turning to "new media" in an effort to get young Utah off-highway-vehicle enthusiasts to drive safely and responsibly.

The Utah School and Institutional Trust Lands and state Parks and Recreation, in collaboration with the Larry H. Miller Group, announced the RideOn! YouTube video contest Tuesday.

The contest is open through May 13. Categories are for elementary, junior high, high school and post-secondary. Student winners can earn $500 each, plus $500 for each of their teachers and $500 for each of their schools by producing winning videos on safely and responsibly riding OHVs.

“It’s frustrating having a hunt ruined by people riding ATVs where off-road vehicle use is prohibited. Many ATVs look the same so there’s no way to identify violators when reporting the incident to law enforcement. There should be a requirement that off-road vehicles used on public lands have license plates or large decals. Any ATV user who follows the law and land management directives on where they can and can not use these machines should have no objection to this type of identification.”
