A female motorist suffered minor injuries in a two-vehicle wreck that took place on January 15 around 3 p.m. in the 4400 block of Clairemont Drive.
The female motorist was driving south in her white-colored Toyota Matrix when a Dodge Charger entered into her lane and hit her. Due to the impact of the crash, the Matrix rolled over and landed in the middle of the street.
The female motorist sustained minor bruises and scratches and was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital for medical attention. We all hope for a quick recovery of the injured motorist.
The driver of the other vehicle escaped unhurt in this car crash.
A rollover may occur after a side collision with another vehicle or any fixed object. Some other prominent reasons behind rollover auto accidents may also involve maneuvering over rough terrain, a quick turn, or a tire tread separation.
All auto accidents carry the danger of injuries; but, rollover accidents can often produce a more damaging effect for the vehicle and drivers involved.
According to the National Highway Safety Administration (NHSTA), more than 30,000 rollover accidents occur each year and from these accidents more than 10,000 lose their lives.
Due to the limited information on the circumstances leading up to the accident, we can speculate that speeding, distraction, or negligence of either motorist could have lead to this rollover accident.
As the investigation into this rollover accident continues, the injured victim should seek out her legal rights against the possible at-fault Dodge driver to obtain compensatory damages.
It is a relief that both parties walked away from this accident. It is greatly recommended to routinely check your tires, never carry too much stuff, and to watch your speed to avoid a rollover accident and to have a chance of walking away from one if it happens.
