Car Accidents in Michigan

Every day in Michigan, crashes like this one remind us just how suddenly life can change. In 2023, the state reported over 900 rollover collisions, many resulting in serious injuries or fatalities. Rollover accidents often happen when vehicles strike an obstacle or when a driver loses control while navigating curves or intersections. They are especially dangerous because they frequently lead to roof crushes, ejections, and multiple traumatic injuries for passengers.

Being aware of how rollovers occur and their impacts can help protect you and your loved ones:

• Causes of Rollover Accidents: Rollovers commonly result from sharp turns at high speeds, collisions with other vehicles, or hitting curbs or medians. SUVs and trucks are more prone to rolling over due to their higher center of gravity.
• Types of Injuries: Victims in rollover crashes often suffer head trauma, spinal injuries, broken bones, or internal injuries. Children are especially vulnerable to severe injuries in these incidents.
• Vehicle Safety Measures: Modern vehicles include features like electronic stability control and stronger roof structures to reduce rollover risk, but driver caution remains key to prevention.
• Importance of Seatbelts: Properly wearing a seatbelt can significantly reduce the risk of being ejected during a rollover, which is one of the main factors leading to fatalities.
• Road Design and Conditions: Poorly maintained roads, sharp curves, or debris can increase the chance of a rollover. Drivers should slow down and stay alert, especially at intersections.
