Injuries Were Uncertain
Initial information from first responders indicated that the accident occurred near Rita's Water Ice on DeKalb Pike, near Skippack Pike. Significant debris was in the roadway when police arrived. A grey SUV and a white sedan were involved in the accident, but it is unclear if anyone was hurt, though injuries were suspected.
How Vehicles Flip
Limited information was available to determine the cause of this accident. However, it takes a significant amount of force and the right angle for a car to flip over. After an accident like this, police will need to determine fault by examining all available forensic evidence. The positioning of the vehicles, the type of damage to each, and the statements made by victims can provide insight. Witnesses and footage from area traffic cameras may also be helpful in identifying who caused the accident.
Vehicles flip when enough force at impact causes the vehicle's rear end to continue moving forward, even after colliding with another car. Often, injuries in these cases are significant and life-threatening.
