The Risks of Rollover Accidents on Texas Highways
Rollover accidents are among the most dangerous types of vehicle crashes, often leading to severe injuries or fatalities. These accidents frequently occur on high-speed roadways like SH 130, where drivers may lose control due to excessive speed, sudden lane changes, or roadway conditions. Vehicles with a higher center of gravity, such as SUVs and trucks, are particularly susceptible to rollovers.
Highway rollovers in Texas are often linked to driver fatigue, distracted driving, or mechanical failures such as tire blowouts. When a vehicle overturns, passengers inside may be at risk of serious trauma, including head injuries, broken bones, and internal injuries. In some cases, occupants may be ejected from the vehicle, further increasing the severity of the crash.
Those involved in a rollover accident should seek medical evaluation immediately, even if they do not feel injured at the time. Some injuries, such as concussions or internal bleeding, may not show symptoms right away. Additionally, documenting the accident and understanding available legal options can be crucial in securing compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and vehicle damage.
