Commentary:
With rollover accidents, there is a real possibility that the driver caused the accident, but by no means is that the only possibility. For instance, there was one case that I looked at where a rollover accident was initially blamed on driver error, but looking at the evidence on the scene, namely the tire skids left on the road, revealed that a tire blowout was actually to blame for the accident. This could easily be the case here, but nobody would know until the right people looked in the right places.
