A rig rolls when the Center of Gravity is no longer within the vehicles width or length, as it relates to the contact points with the earth. That of course changes with you add inertia into the mix. You can sidehill a sanddune with inertia that if you parked sidehill on it, you'd roll. Plus, suspension characteristics can drastically shift the location of the center of gravity due to unloading/loading of the springs/shocks. That changing of the CG can not only roll you, but it can also give the vehicle an internal inertia that might carry you over. Then there are the times when someone basically just drives until you have driven onto one's side. The trail simply turns you over.
