My daughter was flipped!! hit in the rear panel while clearing an intersection the Sportage rolled over. The Chevrolet s10 hit her going around 30 to 35 mph. It spun her and flipped her over and this SUV slide across the pavement on it's roof. She was at a stop then proceeded across intersection 10-15 mph at the most. . Again she was flipped over. . . . This needs to be investigated!!!.
