What does ROLLOVER refer to?

What does ROLLOVER refer to?

• A. On view, officer just witnessed an incident
• B. Accident involving overturned vehicle
• C. Leather straps used to restrain prisoners
• D. Audible alarm

Answer: (B)

The term rollover describes a vehicle crash where the car overturns onto its roof or side. In police and emergency services reporting, rollover flags this specific crash mechanism and signals associated hazards, such as potential occupant ejection, entrapment, or fluid spills—things that require particular response actions like extrication. It isn’t about whether the officer witnessed the incident (on view), nor about restraints used (leather straps), nor about alarms (audible alarm). So rollover is the designation for an accident involving an overturned vehicle.
