A three-car rollover accident occurred just after 10 a.m. on Wednesday July 20, 2011 in Duluth, Minnesota. The accident happened at the intersection of Lake Avenue and Second Street. Three people in three separate cars were involved. One of the cars flipped over. Authorities arrived on the scene with an ambulance to treat victims’ injuries and clear the scene. The cause of the accident is still under investigation.
Rollover accidents account for nearly 33 percent of all passenger vehicle accident deaths. If a person is injured in a rollover car accident, he or she may have a legal claim against:
- another driver who may have caused the accident
- a manufacturer of a faulty car part that may have contributed to the accident
- a bar or restaurant that over-served a driver who caused the accident, if that driver was intoxicated
People injured in a rollover car accident, or the family members of someone killed in a rollover car accident, may be able to receive compensation for the following:
- medical expenses
- funeral expenses
- wage loss
- loss of future earning capacity
- pain and suffering
- loss of advice, care, comfort and companionship

MN Head-on Collision: When is a driver at fault?
Under Minnesota law, a driver is presumed at-fault for a head-on collision if the driver did one of the following:
- drove while drunk or under the influence of drugs
- crossed the median
- went the wrong way on a one way street
- went the wrong way on a freeway ramp
- was texting or talking on a cell phone–under certain circumstances.
If alcohol is involved, an experienced MN car accident lawyer will investigate whether the driver was over-served at a bar–this is known as a dram shop claim.
