Understanding the T-Bone Accident

Similar to head-on collisions, a T-bone accident can result in devastating and painful injuries. Also referred to as a broadside collision, a T-bone accident occurs when either the front of the rear of one vehicle collides with the middle section of another car. During the car accident, the two vehicles will form a "T" shape between them. Upon impact, the vehicle striking the other vehicle will crush at the crumple zone - absorbing the considerable energy of the collision. The vehicle can also rollover upon impact if the accident is severe enough.

Passengers who are involved in such a collision very rarely walk away with just some scrapes and bruises. While airbags are designed to help, it is important to realize that they are not foolproof. They are only useful during the initial collision, if the accident has subsequent hits, the passenger will be left unprotected. They are therefore vulnerable to serious injuries - including spinal damage, soft tissues injuries such as whiplash, broken bones, contusions, lacerations, brain injury and even wrongful death. For this reason, following an accident of this nature, it is vastly important that immediate steps are taken to secure the necessary amount of compensation for both the victim and the family.
