Rollover Accidents in Nevada
Rollover collisions can be utterly destructive and rank among the most traumatic auto accidents on Nevada roads. Approximately 3 percent of all collisions nationwide involve overturned vehicles. Despite making up so few of the reported crashes, rollovers contribute to almost 33 percent of fatal collisions. Most rollover fatalities involve passengers who are not wearing seat belts. Poor road conditions can occasionally be the cause of these crashes, but reckless driving is a key contributing element. The majority of rollover crashes involve just one vehicle, making up nearly 75 percent of related cases. However, many still involve two or more. It is important that you are ready to pursue a strong claim for recovery with the help of a qualified lawyer.
