A rollover crash can be a terrifying experience for anyone. During such a collision, there is a complete loss of control and a significantly increased chance of someone being very seriously hurt. Some might assume that a rollover crash is mainly limited to SUVs and other vehicles with a high center of gravity. It does not matter if you are driving an SUV, a tractor-trailer rig, or a passenger vehicle; the truth is that any vehicle has the potential to roll over.
Station KSBY in San Luis Obisbo reported on its website that a single-vehicle rollover crash happened in the Santa Ynez Valley along Highway 101 near Los Alamos early Thursday morning.
According to a statement released by the California Highway Patrol (CHP), the crash happened at approximately 5:45 AM in the southbound lanes of Highway 101 when the driver of a pickup truck rolled over into the center median.
