Rollover Crashes in California
When a vehicle overturns, those inside risk suffering severe to life-threatening injuries. Rollovers are becoming more common, and an estimated 35 percent of passenger-vehicle fatalities involve overturned vehicles. In 2010, 7,600 people were killed in rollover crashes across the country.
An overwhelming majority of collisions are caused by driver error. Crash victims risk suffering from life-threatening injuries after an accident. In some cases, injured parties can recover lost compensation with the help of a qualified California car crash attorney.
