Last week, a Fort Worth driver rolled his SUV, becoming trapped underneath and dying before CareFlite could transport him to a nearby hospital.
While its uncertain whether the driver was responsible for the accident, what is known is that SUVs are disproportionately likely to roll or flip in an accident. In fact, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) found recently that one-third of all vehicles involved in fatal crashes were SUVs and that rollovers are far more likely to cause serious injury and death as compared to normal crashes.
If you or a loved one has been involved in a rollover accident, you might have a case against the car manufacturer. Class action lawsuits play an important role in securing justice for victims who suffer from similar injuries, such as an improperly designed SUV.
