Los Angeles Personal Injury Lawyer for SUV Rollover Accidents
|
SUVs are very popular in Los Angeles. Many people choose them because of
their carrying capacity or the greater visibility they give the driver,
and others because of the idea that they are safe vehicles. While SUVs may
survive better in a car accident
than some smaller cars, their design and use makes them very susceptible
to rollover accidents.
SUVs have a high center of gravity, which
means that the midpoint of their weight is
high off the ground. The higher the center
of gravity is for any vehicle, the less
stable it is and the more prone it is to
tipping over. While we often think of
rollover accidents happening during a swift
turn, they are more likely to come about
after any collision. The SUV, in any
accident, has its motion changed, and this
can cause the SUV to rollover.

The addition of weight to an SUV, either
through passengers or cargo, makes it even
less stable. While we might think otherwise,
since the weight is added high in the
vehicle, carrying people or cargo in an SUV
actually increases the height of the center
of gravity.
Rollovers can also result from tire defects, and the results can be massive.
Since SUVs do not normally carry any roll bars or any additional safety
protection, anyone inside an SUV during a rollover accident can be severely
injured. In addition to high medical expenses, financial difficulties can
be increased by time missed from work or the need for medical devices following
the accident. Catastrophic injuries
can result from any rollover, and if it causes head
injuries or spinal cord injuries,
paraplegia or even quadriplegia
can be the unfortunate outcome.
