What to Know About Vehicle Rollover Accidents
Rollover accidents can occur when a vehicle suddenly loses stability, causing it to tip onto its side or roof. Speed, steering movements, roadway conditions, and the vehicle’s center of gravity can all affect rollover risk.
People inside a vehicle can face different types of injuries during an overturn. Seat belts help keep occupants secured and can reduce the likelihood of being thrown from the vehicle.
After a rollover, traffic may become difficult to navigate because the vehicle can block travel lanes. Drivers approaching such a location should slow down and give emergency units plenty of room.
A vehicle that has overturned should not be moved unless directed by qualified personnel. Occupants should remain in a safe position while waiting for medical assistance when circumstances allow.
