An SUV, or sport utility vehicle, may be among the most risky autos on this nation's highways and roads. Yet the SUV has been extremely commercial in recent years, with more than a fourth vehicles sold being an SUV. But with this popularity has come a dark side: SUVs often roll over, and when they do, they often crush passengers when they turn over and their roof collapses. A skilled Iowa SUV rollover accident attorney knows how to hold responsible the manufacturer whose design flaws directly led to such tragedies.
When roof-crush occurs in an SUV rollover accident in Iowa, those inside the car can be killed or seriously injured. Such a roof-crush often leads to major head or neck injuries, as well as back fractures which can lead to paralysis. In Iowa and elsewhere, these SUV rollover accidents can occur when an SUV makes a quick movement to the side -- a movement which normally would not cause a smaller car to overturn. Yet due to the SUV's high center of gravity, it often rolls over onto its roof, which then crumples, causing fatalities and horrendous injuries to those inside the SUV.
Many people in Iowa have bought an SUV because they thought it would be safer than other cars on the road. However, the SUV is inherently dangerous to drive, largely due to a high center of gravity which leads to deadly SUV rollover accidents. Often such crashes occur with only a single SUV involved. In fact, almost half of SUV driver deaths in a recent year were in single-vehicle rollover crashes. In other cars, only 20 per cent of deaths came from single-vehicle rollovers.
