Rollover Accidents in Kansas
There’s a chance you’ll be in a crash every time you drive on the road. Some types of accidents are more dangerous than others. If you are involved in a rollover, there is a much greater risk of serious injury. People who are restrained can also get seriously hurt in a collision, but people who are not wearing a seatbelt can be easily thrown out of the vehicle and suffer the worst injuries. Nearly 33 percent of rollover deaths in the past year involved passengers who were properly restrained, while 75 percent of related deaths involved passengers who were not wearing a seatbelt. If someone close to you dies in a car accident, you should talk with a skilled legal team to get all the money you are owed.
