A teenage girl who had dreams of becoming a veterinarian has tragically died when the ATV she and a friend were in flipped over.
Jocelyn Daguman, 14, was driving a Polaris 4x4 Ranger All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) on a property on Boyer Road in the Hobart suburb of Bridgewater on Monday with her friend, also 14, as a passenger.
The two friends were enjoying their time on the picturesque property and celebrating Tasmania's Regatta public holiday when Ms Daguman reportedly lost control of the ATV.
Police and paramedics rushed to the scene around 3pm to find both girls injured underneath the vehicle.

Paramedics performed CPR on Ms Daguman before she was flown to the Royal Hobart Hospital by the Westpac Rescue chopper.
Despite their best efforts, Ms Daguman later died from her injuries in hospital.
Ms Daguman's mother, Sonia Van Den Heuvel, told The Mercury that her daughter was 'heavily loved by all of her family and friends'.
She mentioned that her daughter loved animals and wanted to become a vet.
'I've never seen anyone care for animals as much as she did,' she said.
Ms Van Den Heuvel urged anyone riding ATVs or quad bikes to ensure they were protected.
'I wish I could raise more awareness for people to wear helmets when they're riding,' she said.
Police are investigating the circumstances of the crash and will prepare a report for the coroner.
A GoFundMe page has been set up by Ms Daguman's aunt to support the family.
'The family are battlers and the expense of an unexpected funeral is overwhelming alongside unimaginable grief,' she wrote.
'Please help if you can, even the cost of a cup of coffee will make a difference. If you can't help financially, please like or share to help us spread the word.
'Jocelyn was a beautiful, respectful girl, let's help her family give her a fitting sendoff.'
