Aurora, IL - Officer Injured in Rollover Crash near New Haven Park

Certain types of accidents are more likely to result in fatal or life-threatening injuries. Rollover crashes are fairly rare, only accounting for roughly 2.1% of passenger-vehicle crashes in 2010. However, there were 7,600 people killed in rollover crashes that year, accounting for roughly 35% of deadly passenger-vehicle crashes that year. Nearly 69% of those killed in rollover accidents were unrestrained at the time of the accident.

The financial impact of medical care, repair bills, and lost wages can be extremely disruptive to our lives and leave accident victims in a difficult financial and emotional situation.
