Reducing the risk of a rollover
WARNING - Rollover
This multi-purpose  passenger vehicle  is
defined as a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV).
As with other  Sports Utility Vehicle
(SUV), failure  to  operate this  vehi-
cle  correctly may  result in  loss  of
control,   an   accident   or   vehicle
rollover.
SUV’s
have  higher  ground  clearance
and a narrower track to make them capa-
ble of performing in a  wide variety of off-
road  applications. Specific  design char-
acteristics  give them  a higher  center of
gravity than ordinary cars. An  advantage

problems.    They   are    not
designed   for   cornering   at  the   same
speeds as conventional  passenger drive
vehicles, any more than low-slung sports
cars are designed to perform satisfactori-
ly in off-road  conditions. Due to this risk,
driver and  passengers are  strongly rec-
ommended to buckle  their seat belts.  In
a  rollover crash,  an  unbelted person  is
more likely to  die than a person wearing
a seat belt.  There are steps that a driver
can make to reduce the risk of a rollover.
If  at  all  possible,  avoid  sharp  turns  or
abrupt maneuvers, do  not load your roof
rack with heavy cargo,  and never modify
your vehicle in any way.
A SUV is not designed for corner-
ing  at the  same  speeds as  con-
ventional vehicles.
Avoid   sharp   turns    or   abrupt
maneuvers.
In  a  rollover crash,  an  unbelted
person is  significantly more like-
ly to die  than a person wearing a
seat belt.  Make  sure everyone in
the  vehicle  is   properly  buckled
up.
