The Dangers of Rollover Accidents in Texas
Rollover accidents are among the most serious types of crashes, often leading to severe injuries or fatalities. Vehicles with a high center of gravity, such as SUVs and trucks, are more prone to rollovers, particularly in high-speed crashes or when making sudden maneuvers.
Highways like U.S. 290 see heavy daily traffic, increasing the risk of accidents due to congestion, abrupt lane changes, and speeding. When a rollover occurs, the potential for ejection and serious injuries is significantly higher if occupants are not wearing seatbelts.
Drivers are urged to take precautions by maintaining safe speeds, avoiding sudden swerves, and ensuring that their vehicles are in good mechanical condition. Victims of rollover crashes often face extensive medical treatments and insurance challenges, making it essential to seek appropriate assistance.
