Des Moines Roof Crush & Roof Collapse Lawyer
Have you suffered from a roof crush or roof collapse in a car accident?
While motor vehicle accidents are known for their crippling injuries (often
catastrophic, such as
brain injuries or
spinal cord injuries), the ones that occur from a roof crush or roof collapse or often detrimental, even sometimes resulting in a
wrongful death. Most roof collapses occur during a
rollover accident, when a high center of gravity paired or a small track lead to the vehicle tipping and rolling. Almost every vehicle on the road (but especially SUVs as their build makes them notorious for this kind of accident) would benefit from the addition of a roll cage. It is, however, a sad fact that this addition would cut down on space to such a degree that it would make it difficult to use the car.
Without the roll cage, cars are vulnerable when conditions lead them to a rollover accident. Their metal frame, although designed to protect the passengers, often cannot withstand the pressure and force. Head injury is the most prominent concern at times like this, but not the only one. The structure of the car can often compress so that all windows and the windshield can crack and explode sending dangerous slivers of glass through the car, along with doors popping off to make passenger ejection a much more likely occurrence.
