Rollover Accidents in New Jersey

Car crashes are extremely stressful situations. When an automobile rolls, there’s a chance you could be ejected and sustain severe injuries as it flies down the road. Even while rollovers only make up three percent of car accidents nationwide, data show that they have become more common in recent years, with rollovers typically responsible for over 30 percent of traffic fatalities. Unrestrained passengers are significantly more likely to be ejected and sustain potentially catastrophic injuries when a car rolls. Most fatalities caused by rollovers involve individuals who were not wearing seatbelts at the time of the collision. In the event that you or a loved one is injured in an accident, it is vital that you speak with a knowledgeable personal injury lawyer to make sure you get the most out of your recovery.
