Highway 65 SUV Rollover/Tire Blow-Out Accident Results In Fatal Injuries - Wrongful Death Claim
The Missouri State Highway Patrol (MSHP) has identified a Missouri man who died in a US-65 rollover accident as Stephen P. Bullock. According to a report from the MSHP, Bullock, 35, of Brighton, was traveling southbound on US Highway 65, about two miles north of Springfield, when his 2001 Ford Explorer suffered a tire blow-out. Bullock lost control, ran off of the roadway, and overturned several times. He was pronounced dead at the scene by Assistant Greene County Medical Examiner David Brown.
My heart goes out to the family of Stephen Bullock who was tragically killed in this Greene County rollover accident. I offer my deepest condolences to his loved ones. Please keep them in your prayers.
Tire failure, or tire tread separation, are among the most common auto product defects that can cause drivers to lose control of their vehicles. During a blow-out, it is very common for the driver to lose control of the vehicle and it is tough, even for skilled drivers, to correct the situation.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), about 10,000 people die every year in rollover accidents across the U.S.
