My car rolled over on klondike highway in yukon, canada. It happened when driven on down slope loose gravel. The road condition was not good on that highway. When the car travel from the paved road condition to loose gravel, it slipped in the beginning then lost control and rollover. I could not stop the car by stepping hard on the brake. My wife got a broken shoulder when it rolled over. I got some cut and scratches on my right hand. The car was upside down finally.
