Common Causes of Vehicles Overturning
What many people may not know is that they could have a claim for damages even if another driver did not cause their vehicle to overturn. Single car rollover accidents can occur in Denton when wheels catch during a turn or because the vehicle has a higher center of gravity, such as a Jeep. In some cases, these wrecks are due to vehicle manufacturer errors. This means, people severely injured in an overturned vehicle crash may be able to file a product liability claim for damages.
However, another common cause of rollovers involve intersection collisions. When one vehicle T-bones another, the force of impact could cause the struck vehicle to roll. The vehicle may flip onto the roof or roll several times before coming to a stop. Highways are also prone to vehicles overturning. Motorists who are struck from the side or rear-ended at such high speeds can quickly lose control of their vehicle, resulting in it flipping. This could also occur if the car strikes a barrier or curb.
