Equal Protection Clause considerations. — The operation of off-highway motorcycles is a potentially dangerous activity and the singling out of these vehicles in Section 66-3-1013 NMSA 1978 is not precluded by the Equal Protection Clause. Vandolsen v. Constructors, Inc., 1984-NMCA-023, 101 N.M. 109, 678 P.2d 1184, cert. denied, 101 N.M. 77, 678 P.2d 705. This section does not confer recreational usage immunity on government landowners. Martin v. Middle Rio Grande Conservancy Dist., 2008-NMCA-151, 145 N.M. 151, 194 P.3d 766. Exception for willful or malicious conduct. — The words "directly involved" in this provision refer to "willful" or "malicious" conduct by landowners proximately causing injury to individuals who have entered upon their property. Summary judgment against plaintiff was therefore proper when there were no facts indicating that defendants' actions causing plaintiff's injury were "willful" or "malicious" in nature. Matthews v. State, 1991-NMCA-116, 113 N.M. 291, 825 P.2d 224. Utter disregard for consequences. — If a landowner performs intentional acts "in utter disregard for the consequences," the landowner is not entitled to immunity. When a defendant claims immunity, plaintiffs are therefore not required to prove deliberate intention or purpose to harm in order to rebut the claim. Rivero v. Lovington Country Club, Inc., 1997-NMCA-114, 124 N.M. 273, 949 P.2d 287.
