Rollover Crashes in Texas

You probably do not need us to tell you how terrible and dangerous rollover accidents can be, and they occur more frequently than you might think. In 2019, rollovers claimed the lives of 6,358 passengers in cars, and in 74% of these rollovers, there was an impact before the rollover. The remaining 26% simply rolled over with no prior impact. A whopping 28 percent of all fatalities in passenger vehicles in 2019 were caused by rollovers.
