Vehicle rolls off/over highway safety barrier.

Why am I not surprised its a 3-G Cherokee. This driver got lucky that there was a retention pond below where he landed to break the impact.

Those things are awful design/top heavy. I've seen one in my rearview roll belly up in light snow going maybe 35mph. Another was friends who were injured when theirs rolled after driving through puddle at speed on the interstate. Leather queens lost rights to call me a blonde when they ran right out and bought another one against my friendly advice and their own personal experience.
