Rollover Accidents in Colorado
Rollover accidents can be particularly dangerous due to the potential for severe injuries and vehicle ejections. Highways like US-40 in Grand County often see crashes caused by speeding, sudden lane changes, or road conditions.
According to the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), rollover crashes account for a significant percentage of serious injury and fatal accidents in the state. SUVs and trucks, like the Ford Expedition involved in this crash, are more prone to rollovers due to their higher center of gravity.
