Vans can create dangerous situations when involved in auto accidents because they typically carry up to 15 people. Passenger vans are frequently used by schools, churches, and businesses to transport groups of people. Unfortunately many of these vans are not designed for safety and can cause serious personal injury.
Most vans are exceptionally top-heavy and have a high center of gravity that can lead to a rollover or other accident. In 2001, the U.S. Department of Transportation issued a warning regarding the risk of rollovers in 15-passenger vans causing many automakers to stop producing them. Unfortunately, there are still almost 500,000 of these vans still in service.
Since 1990, over 400 people have died due to single-vehicle rollover accidents in 15-passenger vans.
