The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission initiated a formal regulatory proceeding in 1985 to evaluate the hazards associated with all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and to consider a range of regulatory alternatives. In December 1987, the government and ATV industry filed preliminary consent decrees in U.S. District Court that contained provisions intended to satisfy the Commission's concerns about ATVs. Final consent decrees were approved by the Court in April 1988. This study examines the effectiveness of the consent decrees and concomitant publicity in reducing ATV-related injuries by evaluating changes in driver and market behavior following the consent decrees. Changes in driver behavior are evaluated by comparing the results of risk analyses conducted in the pre- and postconsent decree time periods; the risk analyses are based on logit probability models estimated from cross-section survey data. Changes in market behavior are evaluated by analyzing the impact of the consent decrees on ATV sales patterns. The results suggest that CPSC actions have had a positive impact in reducing ATV injuries.
1985年，美国消费品安全委员会启动了一项正式监管程序，以评估全地形车（ATV）相关的危害，并考虑一系列监管方案。1987年12月，政府和全地形车行业向美国地方法院提交了初步同意令，其中包含旨在解决委员会对全地形车担忧的条款。最终同意令于1988年4月获得法院批准。本研究通过评估同意令发布后驾驶员和市场行为的变化，考察同意令及相关宣传在减少与全地形车相关伤害方面的有效性。通过比较同意令发布前后两个时间段进行的风险分析结果来评估驾驶员行为的变化；风险分析基于从横断面调查数据估计的逻辑概率模型。通过分析同意令对全地形车销售模式的影响来评估市场行为的变化。结果表明，消费品安全委员会的行动在减少全地形车伤害方面产生了积极影响。
