ok. i have a complaint. not about anyone here or this site. it is a complaint about the state of illinois idea to charge ATV owners $15 for a permit. if you are not riding on land you own and live on, you must have a permit. this goes for all ATV's, UTV's and golf carts. if you own land and ride on it but do not reside on it, you must have a permit. they say the money will go for trails and parks but the state barely even has but 1 maybe 2 public parks to ride on. also, if you live in a town that allows UTV's and golf carts on the road as long as you pay the city's fee, guess what, you'll pay the state for a permit, also. BS from the government.
