At Kooi, we represent truck accident victims and we lead the pursuit in obtaining the compensation they deserve. When you are going up against multiple players, you need a skilled and reputable Indiana rollover truck accident attorney who is tirelessly dedicated to achieving a successful case resolution on your behalf.

Common Causes of Truck Rollovers

The following factors affect the stability of a truck and trailer: condition of the vehicle, height of the load, load position, and shifting of the loads. A significant number of rollover accidents occur while the truck is turning, driving through a curve, or on an exit ramp.

As the truck turns, part of the forward forces are directed to the side, and if they exceed the truck’s rollover threshold, the truck rolls over. A number of turn-related rollovers occur because the driver failed to pay attention and had to quickly change lanes and begin a turn at an unsafe speed.

Truck rollovers are often caused by:

Inattention or distracted driving, which diverts the driver’s eyes and mind away from the forward roadway, limiting their ability to respond to hazards.
Speeding and tailgating reduce the ability to respond to hazards.
Overcorrecting and its resultant forces can cause the vehicle to roll.
Roadway hazards such as debris, a stalled vehicle, or an animal crossing the highway.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), in 2012, 3,921 people were killed and another 104,000 were injured in truck accidents – a 4% increase from 2011. In 12% of those crashes, either the truck or the other vehicle was negotiating a curve.
