Blowout did not cause death. It is the nature of SUVs. It rolled over because it is designed unstable. To keep it simpler and as profitable as possible, it is high and unstable. With a big cavernous engine compartment that can accept any engine without engineering. Its height creates a safety myth.

These numbers are currently lower. But the trend from ten years ago demonstrates why she died. One in for SUV crashes are roll overs. And one in four crashes caused fatalities.

Any or all tires must blow out on any car and it must not roll over. But then the engine would have to be integrated with the design. Then the vehicle would require engineering. SUVs are how to build something as cheap as possible. SUVs are exempt from many safety and emission requirements that automobiles must conform because they are trucks

But she was higher. Therefore she was safer ... a myth promoted alongside Saddam's WMDs. If concerned for her kids safety, she would not be driving such a dangerous truck.

What vehicles more often back up over kids? Well, at least the driver was not hurt.
