ROLLOVER ACCIDENTS IN LAS VEGAS, NV
FREE, NO-OBLIGATION CONSULTATIONS AVAILABLE
If you have been involved in a rollover accident, it is likely you suffered injuries. If you were not at fault in the accident, you could have grounds to seek compensation. For example, if your vehicle was hit by a drunk driver which caused it to roll over, the drunk driver may be held responsible for compensating you. This compensation can include medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and more.
HOW DO ROLLOVER ACCIDENTS OCCUR?
Research shows that rollover crashes are some of the most dangerous accidents in which a person can be involved. Several factors can contribute to or even cause a vehicle to roll over, including:
- Speeding – Statistics show that 40 percent of all fatal rollover crashes involve excessive speed.
- Alcohol use – Statistics show that nearly half of all rollover accidents involve alcohol.
- Vehicle type – Studies show that taller vehicles like SUVs have a higher center of gravity and are more susceptible to rollovers.
- Rural roads – Roads without barriers provide no protection for vehicles that go off the road, increasing the chance of a rollover accident.
Rollover crashes are typically the result of negligent actions, whether it be speeding, drinking and driving or both. When a vehicle leaves the road at a high rate of speed or hits another vehicle, the force can cause the vehicle to rollover. Occupants are 75 percent more likely to survive the crash if they wear a seatbelt. However, if they do not, the chances of getting thrown from the vehicle and being seriously injured, or even killed, are very high.
WHAT TYPE OF INJURIES ARE CAUSED BY ROLLOVER ACCIDENTS?
When you are involved in a rollover accident, you face a high risk of being seriously injured and even killed. Serious injuries received in rollover accidents can be life-changing and include:
- Brain injuries
- Broken bones
- Spinal injuries
- Lacerations
If you have been injured by a negligent driver, you should consider legal action.
