What Factors Can Lead to Vehicle Rollovers?
A vehicle can overturn when it loses stability during a turn, sudden steering movement, or collision. Speed, road conditions, vehicle design, and the weight or placement of cargo can all affect stability.
Rollovers can cause injuries when occupants move forcefully inside the passenger compartment. Seat belts help keep people secured and reduce the risk of ejection.
Drivers can lower rollover risks by maintaining appropriate speeds, especially during turns, and avoiding sudden steering movements. Proper tire maintenance can also help vehicles maintain traction and stability on the roadway.
