ATV owner has had a confrontation with group of ATV riders

When I moved here three years ago, I had problems with ATV riders using my creek as a passageway, and actually had a "confrontation" with a group of riders at one point. They don't come here anymore. ;) I'm not against ATVs; I own one myself. FYI: If the vehicle (ATV, boat, etc) in/on which a person or persons is riding floats, then that waterway becomes a public right-of-way. If the vehicle touches ground beneath the water (either in the middle or on the sides of the waterway), then that person is trespassing. Also, landowners have a legal right to fence into or across a waterway in order to water their livestock. Tampering with livestock valued over $500 is a felony, therefore, anyone compromising the integrity of that fence would also be committing a crime. - Donna Rieder
