Walnut Creek Attorneys Examine SUVs and Rollover Accidents

Walnut Creek, CA auto accident attorneyA rollover accident can occur when a driver loses control of his or her vehicle and it starts to slide, at which point it hits a curb or some other object that causes the vehicle to tip and roll over.

Injuries from this type of accident can be especially severe if anyone in the car is not wearing their seatbelt. Rollover accidents are most common in SUVs, pickup trucks or other large and bulky vehicles. Small passenger cars are less likely to roll in an accident.

Vehicles most susceptible

CheatSheet recently published a list of the vehicles that are most likely to roll in an accident. The top ten SUVs and pickup trucks most likely to roll over include:

  • Nissan NV3500
  • Jeep Wrangler Unlimited 4WD
  • Toyota 4Runner
  • Ram 2500
  • Ford F250
  • Jeep Renegade
  • GMC Yukon
  • Chevrolet Tahoe RWD
  • Cadillac Escalade
  • Chevrolet Colorado

Vehicle rollovers occur in only one percent of accidents across the US. However, that small percentage of accidents accounts for as much as 33 percent of all driver or passenger fatalities. While auto companies are aware of this issue and are taking strides to help lower the risk of fatalities, that number is still far too high. More must be done to improve the safety of our vehicles.
