Almost 50 percent of MRAP accidents are rollovers. There are three causes of rollovers: those caused by maneuvers of the driver, a vehicle falling due to the road collapsing and those caused by sudden impact. To avoid rollovers, Maj. Juan Jose Perez, Deputy Director for Multi-National Division - South safety said, Soldiers need to drive at safe speeds allowing them sufficient time to react to a sudden obstacle. This alone can help reduce the number of rollovers caused by quick maneuvers from the driver as well as sudden impacts.
