Injuries Caused by Tractor Rollovers
A tractor rollover can cause a wide variety of serious injuries in the event that they should tip over. According to estimates, one in seven workers who are involved in a tractor rollover will end up with lifelong disability. While human error such as carelessness or intoxication can lead to a rollover, these incidents are frequently the result of a tractor manufacturer's failure to accommodate for factors such as leverage, gravity, axel torque, or centrifugal force in the design of their equipment.
A tractor rollover can cause the following injuries:
- Broken bones
- Crushing injuries
- Neck/back injuries
- Brain damage
- Spinal cord damage
- Death
If it can be proven that your injuries were caused by a defect in the design, manufacture, or lack of warnings on a tractor, you may be entitled to recover compensation for your losses by filing a personal injury claim against the responsible parties. If successful, you may be able to recover monetary damages for your lost wages, medical bills, pain and suffering, and rehabilitation costs.
