Rollover Accidents in Texas
Rollover crashes are among the most dangerous types of vehicle accidents, often leading to severe injuries or fatalities. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), rollovers make up a small percentage of overall crashes but account for a disproportionate number of serious injuries and deaths. Texas, with its high-speed highways and large rural areas, sees a significant number of these incidents each year.
Several factors contribute to rollover accidents:
- Speeding and Sudden Maneuvers: Driving at high speeds or making abrupt turns can cause a vehicle to lose stability and flip, particularly in SUVs and trucks with higher centers of gravity.
- Tire Blowouts: A sudden tire failure can cause a driver to lose control, increasing the risk of a rollover crash.
- Road Conditions: Uneven pavement, debris, or slick roads from rain can contribute to rollovers by reducing traction and stability.
- Multi-Vehicle Collisions: When a vehicle is struck from the side or forced off the road, it may tip and overturn, leading to serious injuries for occupants.
