One of the scariest things to experience during an automobile accident is when you world turns upside-down, literally.  It is a dangerous and disorienting type of crash and one that could lead to serious personal injuries.

The East County Magazine reports that a Lakeside rollover accident occurred, trapping two passengers inside until firefighters and rescue crews could arrive on the scene.  Luckily, no fatalities have been linked to this accident.

Our firm’s Lakeside car accident lawyers know that there are many causes of car accidents, and a rollover accident is just one of them.  In many cases, wrongful deaths are associated with overturn vehicles that slide off the road, so the passengers should feel lucky to be alive after such a nasty accident.

Two passengers were trapped in an overturned car that flipped onto its roof while traveling along an East County road.  Fightfighters and local rescue crews arrived on the scene to administer medical treatment to the people trapped in the car, one was a woman with a seatbelt wrapped around her neck, indicating a possible spinal cord injury.

Fightfighters were able to extract both passengers from the wreckage of the car, without any more harm coming to the motorists trapped inside of it.  They said had the woman not been wearing her seatbelt at the time of the accident, then it is most likely that she would have been ejected from the car on impact.

The San Diego car accident attorneys at our firm want to remind you that it does you no good to wear a seatbelt incorrectly.  Buckling up is only the first step towards a safe ride, the second is making sure you and your fellow passengers, especially children do the same.  Your world can get spun out of control during an auto accident, but you can be prepared to stay safe in those kinds of situations.
