Have you been involved in a T-Bone or side-impact collision with a truck?
T-bone, or side-impact collisions occur when a truck collides with the side of another vehicle, or the other vehicle collides with the side of a truck. When the other vehicle is a smaller vehicle, especially a passenger car, these accidents can be extremely serious. Occupants of a car may not be as protected when the car is hit from the side as they would in a front or rear end collision, where the engine or trunk helps protect the occupants.
The most common situation for a t-bone accident is at an intersection or junction, perhaps because the truck has lost its braking capabilities or the driver has ignored traffic controls and signals. When a tractor trailer truck, with its much greater size and weight, t-bones a car at high speed, it is nearly guaranteed to cause an horrific collision.
T-bone collisions can still cause a variety of serious injuries to passengers and drivers despite advances in automobile safety in newer vehicles, such as side-impact airbags. Injuries can include head and neck injuries, back injuries, internal injuries, burns, and even death. These types of serious accidents require the expertise of various professionals in order to prove the case. The pursuit of claims for these serious injuries and their long-term effects should be handled by a competent, experienced attorney who knows your legal rights and will fight for compensation.
