Rollover Accidents on Massachusetts Highways
Rollover crashes, such as this incident on I-95, are particularly dangerous due to the force of impact and the potential for vehicle occupants to be trapped or ejected. These accidents often occur due to speeding, sudden maneuvers, or collisions with other vehicles or roadside barriers.
Victims of rollover crashes frequently suffer from serious injuries, including concussions, spinal trauma, broken bones, and internal damage. These injuries often require extensive medical treatment, rehabilitation, and time away from work, resulting in financial burdens for those affected. Massachusetts follows a comparative fault system, meaning injured individuals may seek compensation if another driver’s negligence played a role in the crash. However, determining liability in a rollover accident can be complex, as road conditions, vehicle stability, and driver actions all contribute to the incident.
For those involved in serious crashes, seeking immediate medical attention, documenting the accident scene, and understanding available legal options are essential steps toward recovery.
