SUV ROLLOVER INJURIES

SUV’s, despite their heft, can be vulnerable to rollovers due to their high center of gravity.  When an SUV rolls, the injuries for the people inside can be catastrophic.  Seatbelts and airbags will help, but will not always prevent serious injuries from rollovers, or even prevent a person from being ejected. You need NYC SUV Rollover Injuries Attorneys that are specialists in this area.

Driving a sports utility vehicle often makes people feel safer because they’re big, heavy vehicles. Common sense would tell you that if you’re in an SUV and you get into a collision with a smaller vehicle, that you’re less likely to feel the impact in an SUV. However, the relative safety of an SUV can be an illusion in some respects. Because SUVs tend to be taller than other types of cars, they’re more prone to rolling in a crash.

These are the most common injuries sustained in SUV rollover accidents.

• Back and Spinal Cord Injuries: With the force of a rollover, the delicate spine can be jarred, causing herniations and other spinal injuries.
• Broken bones: Forceful impacts are more likely to cause fractures.  Broken legs, arms, and other fractures are all too common.
• Neck Injuries: Herniations, bulges and of the neck are often a result of rollovers.  These injuries can cause nerve damage and pain.
• Chest Injuries: Broken and bruised ribs are quite common.  The force can be strong enough to crush a chest during a rollover.
• Soft Tissue Injuries: Torn ligaments can take a very long time to heal and sometimes require surgery.
• Scarring: Cuts can result in disfiguring scars.
