Deadly Rollover Accidents in Texas

In the United States, rollover accidents are becoming more common every year. This is caused in part by the growing popularity of SUVs and pickup trucks, which are more likely to roll in a crash. However, this increase is also caused by reckless driving. Even while rollover crashes make up a small percentage of all recorded crashes, they are responsible for about 33 percent of fatal auto accidents in the country. In most of these cases, unrestrained passengers were involved in these fatalities. Rollovers accounted for 7,640 fatalities in 2021 nationwide, or almost 29 percent of all passenger vehicle occupant deaths. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that there are over 280,000 rollover crashes in the nation annually, with an estimated 10,000 fatalities on average.
