Rollover
A boy I used to go to school with rolled his Jeep a hour ago 1/2 mile from my place, his right hand was very cut up but was well enough to walk to our farm. But if there was a passenger they would have died probably, driver side looks good enough but the passenger side hit hard.

It is probably partially driver fault but there were some mean ruts that should NOT be on a main road like mine.

He could of been going too fast for the road conditions. Sprinmg time softens a lot of roads this time and some are just not safe.
Probally enough snow still in the ditch that helped cushion some of the rollover. Was it a CJ or Cherokee Jeep?

Chrerokee Jeep a 1988. Fairly rolloverable vehicle Probably was going too fast but I don't think he was doing over 70 judging by where the vehicle ended up.

It`s stupid how Ford took all the heat over the Explorers being bad for roll overs and there are so many vehicles that are as bad or worse.

I wonder if it was a yellow Jeep. I sold my 88 last spring and have not seen it since. when the guy threaten to come after me to pay him back after he blew out the tranny.

Those older jeeps and explorers were terrible for rolling. Least he was still able to walk though.

Specially in sask weather, soft during the day, ruts are formed, then freezes at night.
