Rollover accident in Waco

Got hurt in a Waco rollover

When a vehicle flips over to its roof or side, it is a rollover accident. A rollover accident is always severe. SUVs, trucks, and vans are the most common vehicles to roll over because those vehicles are top-heavy. But cars can roll over too. Rollovers present unique challenges legally. It is vital to get an excellent personal injury lawyer to investigate the matter so you can move on with your life.

Next to head-on collisions, rollovers cause the most deaths for SUV drivers. There are four main reasons for rollovers in Waco. First, when a vehicle has a high center of gravity, it is less stable than other vehicles. This is what makes SUVs more likely to have rollover accidents. Second, when a driver hits a curb, sidewall, or soft dirt, it can cause a rollover. Third, when a driver makes a sudden jerk or turns to the steering wheel, it can shift the weight of the vehicle and cause it to rollover. Fourth, are poor weather conditions, especially in the ice or rain. Fourth are the multi-vehicle accidents.

Even if the rollover is a single-vehicle accident, it is crucial to contact an attorney to investigate your legal claims. A rollover can expose weak roof pillars, auto glass, and seat belt failure. It’s essential to determine who and what caused the catastrophic injuries that often occur in a rollover accident.
