In majority of the cases driver negligence is the cause of for a rollover accident, whereas in some cases they are caused by defective or malfunctioning parts of the car. In the case where the accident can be determined and proved to be because of the negligence of the driver, the victims can file civil lawsuits against the driver. In case where the accident was a result of defective parts or some malfunctioning in the car, the car manufacturer can be held liable.

As per National Highway Traffic Safety Administration:

• Around 33% of all the passenger traffic fatalities in 2004 were a result of rollover accidents.
• 2.7 percent of the people who were occupant of the vehicle which rolls over died as contrast to only 0.2 percent occupants involved in other types of collisions.
• 10,533 people in the U.S. lost their lives in rollover accidents in 2004.

Even after using safety measures, victims of rollover accidents may suffer from many serious injuries.

• The car occupants may be banged around inside the vehicle as it rolls over, resulting in serious traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries and fractures.
• If the vehicle’s roof collapses, the occupants can get crushed in the car and end up losing their lives or suffer from catastrophic injuries
• Though the seat belt reduces the risk of being thrown out in case of a collision, in case of a rollover accident, the person in seat belt may get partially ejected, and end up getting crushed between the vehicle and the ground.
• Victims who are completely thrown out of the rolling vehicle may be killed or get permanently disabled when they fall on the ground or on surrounding things like trees etc.
