Sport utility vehicles (SUV) have almost replaced the station wagon. They are bigger, they can go more places over somewhat rough terrain and, in some cases, they can carry more people and gear.

SUV's have a higher center of gravity and narrower track width. These two facts alone make the SUV more susceptible to rollover accidents. If the roof rack is loaded with gear, this can also add to the instability of the vehicle in a turn. Anything can throw an SUV into a rollover. If the vehicle slips off of a curb, a mound of dirt or even slide on wet pavement, the driver of an SUV can find themselves victims of a rollover accident.

In 1999, SUV rollover accidents accounted for more than 10,000 fatalities across the United States. Although these vehicles are design to go off-road, they are also considered family vehicles and do not have roll bars.
