Rollover Accidents and Roof Crush Accidents
Thousands of people are injured or die in roof crush accidents caused by vehicle rollovers. The victims of rollover accidents often find their lives in complete disarray. Lost wages, medical bills, car repairs and suffering during the process of rehabilitation can be physically, financially and emotionally taxing, to say the least. Sport utility vehicles (SUVs) have the highest rate of fatalities from rollovers. Cars like the Ford Explorer, Toyota 4 Runner, Isuzu Rodeo, and Honda Passport have all been involved in rollovers that have resulted in serious injuries and death. SUV rollovers are approximately three times more likely to occur than a passenger car, and government tests tell us that even the most stable SUV is still more dangerous than the most unstable car.
All too often, these rollover accidents are caused by mechanical failures, such as tire-tread defects or poor stability design. In these cases, the victims of rollover accidents often find themselves fighting SUV manufacturers and an entire team of skilled attorneys. Victims who try to handle their cases alone may expect long delays, confusing paperwork and procedures, and unfulfilled obligations.
Where a wreck is just a matter of careless driving, the insurance company of the at-fault driver may be legally responsible for the victim's medical bills, lost wages, car rentals, pain and suffering, and other damages. It is critical that victims of roof crush accidents know their rights and receive the right representation in dealing with the insurance company.
