Rollover Injuries

April 2026

Sport utility vehicles (SUV) remain popular on the roadways.  However, a SUV has a higher center of gravity than a passenger vehicle.  The SUV also has a narrower track width relative to the height of the vehicle.   The SUV further has a softer suspension which allows for a more comfortable ride.   The SUV is heavier which causes more momentum when control of the vehicle is lost.  Although rollovers are not as common as other types of car collisions, they can cause serious injuries because the occupants of the vehicle are tossed around and turned over.  A rollover can be caused by many factors.  Some of the common factors include inadequate road signage, poor design of the highway, excessive speed, poor design of the vehicle and inattentive driving.
