Two People Die in a Ford Truck Rollover Crash on Highway 299 in Redding, California


Redding, Calif. — Two people lost their lives Wednesday in a rollover crash that happened on Highway 299 in Redding.

According to reports, a 2002 Ford Ranger traveling westbound veered off the road, down an embankment, and rolled over, landing on its roof.

Two truck occupants lost their lives in the crash.

No further details have been provided.

Thoughts on Ford trucks and rollovers

The rollover crash on Highway 299 highlights the serious safety concerns associated with certain truck models in rollover accidents.

A common issue we see in older model trucks in rollover accidents is the failure of safety features, such as seatbelts, roofs, and airbags, to protect occupants. Defective roofs, for example, may collapse under the force of a rollover, causing further harm to occupants.

If defects in the Ford Ranger contributed to the loss of two lives here, the affected families should have the right to hold Ford accountable for the loss of their loved ones.
