From Cajun food and jazz music to Creole culture and Mardis Gras, Louisiana is a state of many flavors and lively celebrations. It's also a state ripe for outdoor activities, particularly in the swampy "alluvial" areas near the Mississippi River. Such areas are a magnet for enthusiasts of all terrain vehicles, or ATVs, also known as utility terrain vehicles, or UTVs. Sadly, such enthusiasts often have nothing to celebrate, because their rugged outdoor activity ends in tragedy. In a recently ended 25-year period, Louisiana had suffered 171 deaths in ATV accidents. Across the country, as many as 700 more ATV accidents deaths are expected by year's end. Many of these tragic accidents occur due to manufacturer negligence in terms of the vehicles' design. That's certainly true of Yamaha, whose Yamaha Rhino ATV, which it also calls a Yamaha Rhino UTV, has a narrow wheel base and a top-heavy nature which combine to make the vehicle a likely candidate for tipping or rolling over, often leaving riders trapped beneath the vehicle's 1,100-pound weight. Yet the Yamaha Rhino is one of the more popular ATV brands. Why? Because that same narrow wheel base enables owners to load the vehicle onto the back bed of a pickup truck for transporting to an ATV track or trail, such as Camp Claiborne or Bonnet Carre Spillway in Louisiana. Yet though these scenic outdoor areas are fine places for recreation, the Yamaha Rhino ATV is not the best vehicle to choose for that purpose. Death often follows a Yamaha Rhino ATV accidentThe Yamaha Rhino ATV is so badly designed that it is prone to rollover accidents even when the vehicle is being driven slowly and on a level, flat surface.When the ATV or UTV tips or rolls over, occupants can be trapped underneath or pinned against another object. Victims may suffer such injuries as paralysis, brain damage and crushed limbs which require amputation. These victims may be unable to work and earn a living due to their injuries, and many are reliant on insurance coverage to offset medical bills and lost wages. Unfortunately, not all insurance companies in corporate America are eager to provide such coverage, even when a policy holder is entitled to it. That means a victim of a Yamaha Rhino ATV accident may need an experienced Yamaha Rhino accident lawyer to stand up to the insurance company and seek just and fair compensation for their loss. Such compensation can be sought not just from an insurance provider, but from the manufacturer whose negligence clearly caused the Yamaha Rhino ATV accident. In either case, it's all about justice. A Louisiana Yamaha Rhino accident lawyer can fight the large corporations and insurance companies which try to deny average Americans the financial compensation they rightly seek for injuries suffered due to manufacturer negligence.
