Injured in a crash involving a sport utility vehicle?

More and more SUVs are on Dallas highways and streets and along with that is an increase in SUV accident statistics. While SUVs serve a number of uses for families, individuals and in connection with business, there are inherent risks in driving these vehicles as opposed to a sedan. The higher center of gravity makes SUVs three times more likely to rollover if it is involved in a collision or if the driver loses control or attempts to make sudden evasive maneuvers. Rollover accidents can result in very serious injuries to both driver and passengers including head and neck trauma, spinal cord injuries, dislocations, internal injuries and more.
