Rollover Accidents in Texas
Rollover crashes are among the most dangerous types of vehicle accidents, often leading to serious or life-threatening injuries. These accidents frequently occur on curved or rural roads, such as Longhorn Skyway, where speed, road conditions, and driver control can contribute to instability. Vehicles with a higher center of gravity, such as SUVs and trucks, are particularly susceptible to rollovers, especially if they hit a curb, guardrail, or uneven terrain.
Common causes of rollover accidents include excessive speed, sharp turns, driver distraction, and road hazards. Single-vehicle rollovers can occur when a driver overcorrects after losing control, while multi-vehicle incidents may result from a collision impact that forces a vehicle to overturn. Regardless of the cause, rollover crashes often lead to severe injuries, including head trauma, broken bones, spinal cord damage, and internal injuries.
For those injured in rollover accidents, medical expenses, lost wages, and rehabilitation costs can place a significant financial strain on victims and their families. Texas law allows individuals hurt in crashes caused by negligence to pursue compensation for their damages. Establishing liability in rollover crashes may require an investigation into factors such as vehicle defects, road conditions, and driver behavior.
