These incidents, marked by vehicles overturning during collisions, leave a trail of destruction in their wake.
This force, coupled with the vehicle’s inherent design vulnerabilities, increases the likelihood of a rollover. SUVs and trucks, with their higher centers of gravity, are particularly susceptible to flipping over during high-speed incidents.
The design of a vehicle plays an important role in its susceptibility to rollover accidents when speeding happens. Inadequate stability features, such as a high center of gravity, poorly designed suspensions and bad tire traction, increase the risk of a fatal crash.
From 2019 to 2020, fatal vehicle accidents went up by 7% in America. The stark reality is that each instance of a speeding vehicle on the road is a potential catalyst for tragedy. Only through a concerted effort to address the root causes of fatal rollover accidents can this change.
