Many people each year experience rollover accidents. These accidents are sometimes caused by a driver turning a corner too sharply or hitting another car at high speeds. 

However, these accidents can also be attributed to a tire defect. When this occurs, the tire manufacturer may be liable for tire damages and personal injuries. 

The rollover may also be caused if the tires are mounted or installed poorly. If you or anyone you know has been involved in a rollover accident, contact the Madison car accident attorneys of Habush, Habush, & Rottier, S.C., at 800-242-2874. 

The seats in many cars are not designed to protect babies and small children. For that reason, many parents get car seats for their children. While most car seats reduce the risk of injury in car accidents, they can sometimes fail to work properly and lead to serious injury to children. 

When car seats fail to work properly, the car seat manufacturer or related company could be liable for damages. Determining whether an injury was due to a defective car seat, however, requires expertise, investigation, and extensive evaluation.

This week a bus loaded with University students from University of Wisconsin-Madison were on their way for a trip to Chicago to visit a German market. They crashed on Saturday morning on the Chicago expressway. Police are still investigating the crash, but from eyewitness accounts, a small sedan entered onto the expressway, and drove across to lanes of traffic without seeing the bus. They cut the bus off, leading to the crash.

The person in the small car was killed and pronounced dead at the scene. Other persons involved suffered minor injuries. Some students were taken to a local hospital to check for serious injuries to the back or neck.

Honda announced recently that they will recall 34,200 Fit models due to faulty wiring of a system designed to keep an airbag from deploying if a child is in the front passenger seat. The problem exists in 22 states where salt is used on wet or icy roads. The salt is brought into the car by the driver or other passenger's shoes. It then seeps through the carpeting and causes problems with the wiring for the air bag sensor that allows the air bag not to deploy if there is a child present.  The model years covered by the recall are 2007 and 2008. Honda will replace the potentially faulty wiring with a new system that is shown not to have the same problems from snow and salt. If you or someone you know has been injured by a faulty air bag in a car, contact the Madison personal injury lawyers of Habush Habush and Rottier, S.C. at 1-800-822-1690 to discuss your case and to schedule an initial consultation.
