According to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, nearly 2 percent of reported crashes involve rollovers. These types of accidents are often violent and can result in serious injuries at any speed. Many have attributed the rising rate of rollover crashes to the rising popularity of sport utility vehicles which are more likely to overturn on the open road. However, around 45 percent of Americans still think it is safer to travel in an SUV than a sedan or similar passenger vehicle. In 2014, almost 66 percent of rollover fatalities were unrestrained at the time of the accident.
