Rollover Accidents in New Mexico

Nearly 2% of reported crashes involve rollovers, according to information from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. These accidents can cause serious injuries for those involved even if they happen at slow or breakneck speeds. Industry experts hold the belief that the rising popularity of sport utility vehicles, which are more likely to roll over on open roads, is to blame for the increase in rollover crashes. Nevertheless, about 45 percent of Americans believe a sport utility vehicle (SUV) is safer to drive than a sedan or other similar passenger vehicle. Nearly 66 percent of rollover deaths in 2014 involved people who were not wearing seatbelts.
