Another Van Rollover Takes the Life of Five and Critically Injures Ten

A crowded van full of children suffered a tire blowout causing it to lose control, rollover killing five people, and critically injuring another ten. According to news sources, a tire on the van’s driver’s side blew causing the driver to overcorrect and lose control. In just one second the lives of all the occupants have been changed forever. A minor mistake ended up with catastrophic and tragic results according to the sheriff on location. The vehicle flipped three or four times with kids ejected everywhere. The driver was killed instantly. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and their families. The families would be well advised to seek the services of an experienced van rollover attorney who will investigate this claim as many of the vans have notable design defects where manufacturers put profitability ahead of consumer safety.
