Precautions While Driving
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
To prevent rollovers or loss of control:
•
Take corners at slower speeds than you would with a passenger vehicle.
•
Avoid sharp turns and abrupt maneuvers whenever possible.
•
Do not modify your vehicle in any way that you would raise the center of gravity.
•
Do not carry heavy cargo on the roof.
Avoid driving in deep water and on flooded roads. This can damage the engine or
cause electrical component failure.
If there is a strong impact with something under the vehicle, stop in a safe location.
Check the underside of the vehicle for damage or any fluid leaks.
