The Dangers of Rollover Accidents on Highways
Highway rollovers, like the crash on I-93 North near Woburn, are among the most severe types of vehicle accidents due to the high speeds and force of impact involved. These incidents often result in serious injuries, as occupants can become trapped or ejected from their vehicles during the crash. Rollover accidents are commonly caused by abrupt lane changes, high-speed collisions, or loss of vehicle control due to road conditions or driver distraction.
Victims of rollover crashes often sustain injuries such as head trauma, broken bones, spinal injuries, or internal bleeding, all of which may require extensive medical treatment. Beyond physical recovery, victims may also face financial hardships, including medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and lost wages due to time away from work.
Understanding what steps to take after a major crash can be critical in ensuring a smoother recovery process. Seeking medical care, gathering evidence from the accident scene, and knowing one’s legal rights are essential actions for those involved in serious accidents.
