How Rollover Crashes Can Lead to Serious Injuries
Rollover crashes usually result in more severe harm than other types of roadway accidents because of the force created when a vehicle tips or flips. These crashes may happen after a driver loses control, strikes another vehicle, or leaves the road at high speed. SUVs, pickup trucks, and taller vehicles generally face a greater risk of rolling over due to their higher center of gravity.
People inside overturned vehicles can face head trauma, broken bones, or neck and back pain, even when seat belts are used properly. Road conditions, vehicle speed, and side-impact contact are commonly reviewed after this type of crash. In many cases, damage patterns and witness statements help piece together how the vehicles moved before the rollover occurred.
