RE: OT: A Hummer boo boo (rollover)

If I assume it just keeled over, and did not roll a long way from the top (by the looks of it, it did not), I think it looks like the driver for some reason steered the car up the rock under the bush in the left corner of the first picture.

Maybe he came in from the right, dropped off the right hand rock ledge, turned too late and got his left front wheel too far up the left side. He might have panicked from the drop, or he might have had his front lockers on (if the H2 has front lockers) and not managed to turn his battleship at all.

He might also have tried to compensate for the vehicle slanting too much for comfort, by trying to steer it to higher ground. I know I do that if I dont focus on the terrain.
