Roger
It is tragic.
The unfortunate part is that he was thrown from the vehicle.
They did some research up here on 4WD roll-overs. During the period in all the fatalities the deceased were not wearing a
seat belt.
The fact he was thrown out indicates that either he was not wearing a
seat belt or it failed.
