I found an interesting site on the internet the other day. The "rollover lawyer" specializes only in cases regarding truck rollovers. You can click on most any type of SUV but one of the largest and most disturbing sections (after the Ford Explorer, of course) was for the Suzuki Sidekick and Samurai. Check it out and comment. I was wondering if any Samurai or sidekick owners had any unexpected (I mean it is a tall and narrow SUV! Come on, it isn't a Viper!) rollover tendencies. DISCUSS!

This just reinforces my already negative stereotype of personal injury lawyers. C'mon, you can't drive an SUV like a Vette or Ferrari. I guess the day of personal responsibility is long gone.  

a friend of mine flipped his BMW (poor rich boy) back in high scool and it was totally avoidable. too much throttle for the situation. any vehicle is prone to rolling over if the driver is an idiot or unconscious. in my opinion the issue with the samurai rollovers was mostly to do with bad drivers directed by devious lawyers. i have ridden in and driven Samurais to great success for many years and have only rolled one samurai at 4 mph while trying too big an obstacle for the vehicle. I believe that the rollover on pavement problem with samurais comes from too high of rate of speed (much like most accidents) and the ignorance of the samurai operator that he/she is driving a sports car rather than a 4WD vehicle that should be respected as such.
