North Carolina Rollover Accidents 
There are hundreds of car accidents that take place in our state every day. Rollover crashes can result in some of the most serious and severe crashes. A rollover accident usually takes place at high speeds. Vehicle occupants in rollover crashes are at risk of being hurt in the initial crash as well as the rollover. When a vehicle rolls over, the occupants can be thrown from the vehicle, further increasing the odds of being hurt.
