Rollover Cause Car Crashes Every 30 Minutes

Rolling back the numbers found in the U.S. Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) database, the NHTSA estimates the victims of rollover accidents are killed roughly every two minutes in our country. About 35% of the victims are crushed under vehicles, and at least 64% of the fatalities occurred when a victim was unrestrained, allowing them to be ejected from the vehicle. Adults between 25 and 34 years old and those in their mid-70s and up are more likely to be in a rollover accident than any other group of people.

A car likely to rollover are those that carry a heavy load in the back, CT and sport utility vehicles, trucks, and cars with a high center of gravity. Also, as antilock brake systems have prevented numerous rollover accidents, older vehicles are highly susceptible to this type of accident.

You Might Have a Rollover Lawsuit If

  • One or more vehicle component malfunctions directly contributed to the accident
  • Your vehicle or other vehicle was struck in a way that could have been avoided
  • Distracted driving, including text-driving, contributed to the accident
  • Weather conditions contributed to the accident
  • The accident’s risk could have been minimized with greater safety measures

Charged with sometimes life-threatening complications, accidents that result in a vehicle rolling over one or more times are typically avoidable and the fault of a negligent driver.

After a Rollover Crash, Injuries Might Include

  • Fractures to the back, neck and base of the skull, rib, legs, arms, hands, and feet bones
  • Dermatitis (skin irritations) and reactions caused by airbags and safety belts
  • Facial disfigurement and/or extreme facial laceration, especially if drivers and passengers were looking out the front or side window when the rollover occurred
  • Chest trauma, including broken ribs and a heart attack caused by a fractured rib puncturing the lung, and upper right chest injuries (beneath shoulder cuffs) and to the organs and blood vessels in that area
  • Separated joint, ankle-foot injuries, or lower limb injuries—all of which can be caused by doors popping open during roll and impacts with various objects
  • Short-term and long-term nerve damage or paralysis (including paraplegia and quadriplegia) caused by blunt impact trauma to the head or neck or by cervical spine injury caused by the head falling or being pulled back
  • Vapor-induced and other types of burns—even clothing can become NBVC to noxious fumes, and fuel injection systems can rupture and spray gasoline onto a heater core, hot engine part, or a person's skin or clothing during a roll
  • Crush injuries, particularly if drivers or passengers are tossed about within a vehicle's interior, can become pinned and crushed between the vehicle and the road, leading to suffocation or a crush-induced heart attack

Also, a vehicle can be running on its side or roof for long periods after a rollover wreck and can ignite or explode, causing catastrophic or fatal burn injuries.

FAQs

Common Answers To Your Questions
  • What qualifies as a personal injury?

    A personal injury generally refers to any bodily injury sustained in an accident, from minor bruises to severe brain trauma. The most common personal injury claims arise from harm sustained from traffic wrecks, slip and fall accidents, defective products, dangerous property conditions, and medical malpractice.

  • What is the personal injury statute of limitations in Illinois?

    Under state law, the statute of limitations (or deadline) for most personal injury claims in Illinois is two years from the date of the accident. However, for claims against governmental agencies, there are special limitation periods that may be as short as a year. You should always consult with an attorney on what particular limitations period might apply to your claim. You should seek legal help immediately, as a delay may be fatal to your claim. Unless you have a special exception, your claim will be thrown out if you attempt to file after the limitations period has passed.


    Because every personal injury claim is different, it is difficult to determine an average settlement. A victim who lost a limb will likely need to receive more in medical expenses than someone who broke an arm, for instance. Although personal injury claims tend to average anywhere between $3000 to $75,000—an extremely broad range—there may be significant economic and noneconomic factors in your individual case that may indicate that your particular claim would be valued at a significantly higher figure at trial in front of a jury. An attorney can help you estimate your unique losses based on the facts of your case. The knowledge of an attorney experienced in jury verdict value is extremely important. You should be entitled to make up for your specific losses at the very least.
     

  • What evidence is needed for a personal injury claim?

    Necessary evidence can vary case by case depending on the specifics of your situation. However, one of the most helpful pieces of evidence is your medical records. If you can prove that you sought medical attention for a serious injury after an accident, you are more likely to receive compensation to cover the expenses associated with said injury. Other helpful evidence includes any photographs of the accident scene, accident reports, witness statements, insurance forms, receipts, and any other physical evidence related to the injury.
