Depends, if you have a really weak rebound on the compressed side of the
car, then you correct hard the other direction, the momentum of the body
rolling over (lack of rebound rate and a weak compression rate) can cause
a rollover. If the car in question also has an unusually large amound of
suspension travel..this worsens the problem.
