Sports Utility Vehicles or (SUV) is a very popular type of car in Western countries. In fact, there are over twenty two million SUVs plying the roads in the United States. But unfortunately, there are a lot of SUV accidents because of rollovers. These accidents occur because SUVs are larger and heavier when compared to other cars so they area more difficult to maneuver. The usual reason why these accidents occur in the first place is because drivers are forced to swerve in some cases. This may not be that dangerous when you are using a small car, but by using SUVs, a rollover accident is almost to be expected.

In the case of the Honda SUV, the company announced a voluntary recall of this popular model in 2003. This is due to the fact that their keys can be removed in the ignition switch even when it is not yet parked. As you can see, even a stable and a very reliable company can make this mistake so you should be careful when choosing a car. You should also consider availing of SUV insurance just to be sure that you will be covered in case of a SUV accident.

The Honda SUV is really not much different from other SUVs, they are all very comfortable yet they all pose a greater danger when compared to smaller cars. Some people comments that SUVs make them feel safer because it is a very large and compact car but this feelings can be deceiving when you look at the statistics of SUV accidents.

If you were involved in a Honda SUV accident or even any other brand of SUVs for that matter, it is also best to consult with lawyers so that you can be aware of your rights. Now that you know all the risks involved, driving carefully to avoid any SUVs accidents is advisable.
