15 Passenger Van Rollover

Many people primarily associate rollover accidents with sports utility vehicles. However, these are not the only vehicles that can become dangerous on the road. 15 passenger vans also have a much higher risk of rollover accidents compared to smaller vehicles.

When a 15 passenger van rolls over, the consequences can be devastating. Sadly, many of these accidents are caused by design or manufacturing defects that could have been fully avoided. If you or a loved one has been harmed by a van rollover due to another party’s negligence, the 15 passenger van rollover lawyers of the Willis Law Firm may be able to help. Call us today at 800-883-9858 for more information.

Causes of 15 Passenger Van Rollovers

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued repeated warnings about the risks of driving a 15 passenger van. Because these vehicles are longer than most cars, they can be much more difficult to control. In addition, many vans have a top-heavy design that increases the likelihood of a rollover accident.

Rollover accidents are most likely to occur in the following circumstances:

  • The vehicle leaves the road. If a driver is fatigued, intoxicated, or distracted, he or she may fail to steer the van correctly, causing it to drift off the road. If there is debris alongside the road, or a change in elevation between the road and the ground, the van may roll over.
  • The driver steers sharply. Many rollover accidents occur when drivers swerve, over-correct their steering, or make sharp turns. Due to the length and weight of 15 passenger vans, these sharp movements can cause the back end to swing forward, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
  • There is a tire blowout or defect. If a 15 passenger van experiences a tire blow, tire tread separation, or a similar incident, the driver can easily lose control of the van. This may cause the van to swerve, potentially resulting in a rollover accident.

Many 15 passenger van rollovers are related to reckless behavior, defective parts, or poor vehicle designs. If you have been harmed in an accident due to any of these factors, you may have grounds for a legal claim. Our 15 passenger van rollover attorneys can help you pursue justice.
