To combat the danger of rollovers, the joint program office that provides Mine resistant vehicles for the Marine Corps and Army is working to field a new detection device that will alert drivers when an MRAP rollover is likely. The aim is to avoid potentially fatal accidents or, in worst-case scenarios, alert passengers that a rollover is imminent so they have time to brace for it.
