The Yamaha Rhino is a side-by-side all terrain vehicle (ATV) that has caused serious injury due to significant flaws in the vehicle’s design. In March of 2007 the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission released a report on ATV accidents. This report showed that more than 4,400 deaths were caused as a result of ATV accidents between 1995 and 2004. The CPCS estimated that there was more than one death for every 10,000 ATVs in use.
