15 Passenger Van Accident Causes

15 Passenger van accidents are actually on the rise in the San Diego area. The problem with these vans is that they are unstable and have a high likelihood of rollover. Combined with seatbelt failure the outcome is often catastrophic injuries and fatalities.

15 passenger vans most commonly involved in accidents include the

• The Ford E250, E350 and Econoline Vans
• The GMC/Chevrolet G3500 Van
• The Dodge 1500/3500 Van

These were all popular in churches, schools, shuttle services, and community groups. However, despite their popularity, the stability issues are well documents and the risk increases with the heavier the load. So the more passengers on board the higher the risk of rollover and catastrophic injury.
