SUV Accidents

In the past couple of decades, the popularity of the Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) has risen as an increasing number of consumers have chosen to purchase SUVs. While many of these consumers enjoy the towing capacity and the passenger-carrying space of the SUV, it has become apparent that these types of vehicles pose many safety threats to drivers and occupants.

SUV Rollover Accidents

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), SUVs are approximately three times more likely to rollover in a single car accident than any other vehicle. This increased rollover probability coupled with the fact that SUVs have a relatively high occupant capacity makes SUV passengers and drivers particularly susceptible to catastrophic injuries. In 2006, the Insurance Information Institute released a report which found that SUVs had the highest occupant fatality rate of any vehicle involved in a rollover accident with a total of 8,062 SUV occupants killed.
