Missouri Injury Attorney Blog

Wendi D Piemonte, 33, of Branson West, MO suffered serious personal injuries in a Missouri SUV rollover accident, according to a report from the Missouri State Highway Patrol.

On the afternoon of July 14, 2009, was westbound on Rolling Acres Road south of Branson West when her 2005 GMC SUV ran off of the roadway and overturned. Piemonte was then taken to Skaggs Regional Medical Center.

I wish Wendi the best towards a quick and complete recovery.

Thousands of Americans die every year in rollover accidents. According to the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), at least one quarter of traffic accident fatalities occur in rollover crashes. Auto manufacturers are continuing to make vehicles with weak roofs that can easily cave in and crush the passengers inside. This can result in disastrous injuries to the brain and spinal cord or even death.

In this Missouri rollover accident, it's not clear what caused Piemonte to run off the roadway.
