Crash Fact

Vehicles roll over in less than 3% of all crashes, but these crashes account for more than a third of passenger vehicle occupant deaths (source: Status Report. Insurance Institute of Highway Safety. Vol. 49, No. 4, May 29, 2014). Two things you can do to lessen your risk of injury due to a roll over crash are 1: SLOW DOWN (your vehicle is much more likely to flip at higher speeds) and 2: drive a vehicle with side-curtain airbags (these will prevent your head from hitting the widow and/or ground as the vehicle rolls over). And don’t forget to WEAR YOUR SEATBELT!!!
