Rollover Car Accidents in Lebanon County
Rollover accidents represent some of the most dangerous and potentially devastating types of motor vehicle crashes that occur on Lebanon County’s roadways. These accidents, which often happen on major routes like I-78, Route 422, and Route 322, can result in catastrophic injuries due to the violent nature of a vehicle flipping over and the subsequent roof crush that may occur.
In Lebanon County, several factors commonly contribute to rollover accidents. The area’s diverse topography, including the rolling hills of the Pennsylvania Dutch Country and busy commercial corridors around Lebanon city, can increase rollover risks, particularly for top-heavy vehicles like SUVs and pickup trucks. Weather conditions, such as the region’s harsh winters and frequent farm equipment on rural roads, can also play a significant role when combined with excessive speed or sudden steering maneuvers.
Personal injury victims in rollover accidents often face severe injuries including traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, crushing injuries, and multiple fractures. These injuries typically require extensive medical treatment, lengthy rehabilitation periods, and can result in permanent disabilities. The financial impact can be substantial, encompassing not only immediate medical expenses but also long-term care needs, lost wages, and diminished earning capacity. Pennsylvania law allows victims to seek compensation for both economic and non-economic damages, including pain and suffering, though specific insurance rules under Pennsylvania’s choice no-fault system may affect how claims are handled and what compensation can be pursued.
