A 13 year old boy in NY was riding his new Rhino ATV when it rolled over (which he had received hours earlier).  The boy was not wearing a helmet or his seat belt.  The WTEN article states:

What makes the tragedy weigh even heavier on James Spencer was the fact that the Yamaha Rhino 450 had actually been recalled by the federal government this past March after reports of more than 40 deaths and hundreds of injuries.

"I was not aware of any deaths or any injuries with this machine," he told NEWS10.
