Seems like wearing the seat belt probably helped in this roll over? Are passengers in big trucks required by federal law, enforced in all 50-states, to wear their seat belt? My guess is yes, but cannot recall? NH is the one and only state where drivers are not required to wear a seat belt. Probably, a late model BMW X6, the ultimate driving machine, is the most common car in NH, and everyone has too much common sense to not be wearing their seat belt ...... go figure?
I checked-in here after viewing YouTube "Compilations" of traffic accidents.
