Hartford Auto Accident Lawyer: SUV Rollovers

Fighting for Damages Following an SUV Rollover

When a vehicle rolls over onto its side or roof, this is known as vehicle rollover. Although it can affect any type of car, it most commonly occurs with SUVs due to their high center of gravity. While side impact crashes can often be responsible for an SUV rollover, it is not just collisions with other vehicles which may cause this to happen. Obstacles in the road or other factors which may require a sudden swerve or turn, defective tires, hazardous roads and more can all affect the SUV's equilibrium and contribute to a rollover. A Hartford personal injury lawyer can investigate the facts and circumstances of your accident and to determine your best course for pursuing the compensation you need.

SUV rollovers can be incredibly dangerous for the occupants of the SUV. The violent motion of the rollover can itself cause numerous injuries to passengers. They can also be severely injured by being slammed into each other, the road and parts of the SUV with extreme force. If the vehicle rolls all the way over onto its roof and roof crush occurs, passengers can easily experience brain and spinal injuries or even wrongful death.
