Five Quick Ways To Prevent Vehicle Rollover Incidents And Injuries

Don't make sudden turns or jerk the wheel of your car, especially when going above 40 miles per hour.

Don't overload the top of your car - top heavy vehicles are much more likely to tip and roll.

Keep a firm grasp on the wheel to increase your control and your concentration on the road.

Don't swerve to miss small animals

Buckle up. Not all rollover accidents can be prevented.
