Every year in the United States millions of sport utility vehicles are sold to consumers who expect the vehicles to live up to the expectations that they are advertised with. Many SUV's are marketed as being rugged and sturdy vehicles which can be driven off-road, while providing the driver and passengers with the comfort that luxury cars offer. Unfortunately there are countless SUV dealers and manufacturers who choose not to inform prospective buyers of the risks involved with sport utility vehicles. Therefore, many consumers do not know that they are putting themselves at risk for serious injuries when operating SUV's.
Listed below are some important SUV statistics:
- Approximately 4,500 people died in SUV accidents in 2003.
- SUV accident fatalities rose 22% between 2001 and 2003.
- 63% of SUV rollover accident fatalities occurred due to vehicle ejections.
- 58,000 people sustained SUV rollover-related injuries in 2002.
The fact that many sport utility vehicles have a high center of gravity, places the vehicle driver and passengers at an increased risk for a rollover accident. In the event that an SUV driver must perform quick emergency steering maneuvers he or she faces certain hazards if the car hits a guardrail, hits the curb, or drives on loose gravel. All of those incidences may cause the vehicle to rollover, showing that SUV's may be involved in single vehicle accidents, and do not need to be in a collision with another vehicle to cause serious injuries.
