Car Accident in Vero Beach

Rollover Accidents

Although rollover accidents represent only a small percentage of motor vehicle crashes, they have a higher fatality rate than other crashes do.

Rollovers account for a reported third of traffic-crash deaths in the U.S. Tall and narrow vehicles, such as SUVs, are most likely to roll over. The accident can happen when the vehicle leaves the road and strikes an object that “trips” it, causing it to flip over. Some 95% of rollover accidents reportedly occur in this fashion.

In Florida, more than 600 rollover accidents happen yearly.
