Understanding T-Bone Accidents

A T-bone accident occurs when one vehicle strikes another vehicle at a perpendicular or near-perpendicular angle, forming the shape of a "T". These accidents may take place at intersections when one driver fails to act safely and collides with another vehicle traveling through the intersection. T-bone accidents can result from various factors, including:

• Distracted driving: When drivers are reading or sending text messages, talking on the phone, adjusting their GPS systems, or engaging in other activities instead of focusing on the road, they may proceed through intersections without checking to make sure they are clear, leading to collisions.
• Running red lights or stop signs: Drivers who disregard traffic signals put themselves and others at risk for devastating T-bone collisions.
• Failing to yield right-of-way: Neglecting to give proper priority to other vehicles can lead to dangerous collisions.
• Driving under the influence: Impaired judgment and delayed reaction times due to intoxication by alcohol or drugs can significantly increase the chances of causing a side-impact collision.
• Poor weather conditions: Rainy or icy roads can make it harder for drivers to control their vehicles and avoid accidents.

The Impact of T-Bone Accidents

T-bone accidents often result in severe injuries due to the limited protection provided by vehicle structures in comparison to front-end or rear-end crashes. The sides of vehicles offer far less protection to occupants, making them vulnerable to significant harm and even fatal injuries. Common injuries resulting from T-bone accidents include:

• Whiplash and neck injuries
• Fractures and broken bones
• Cuts, bruises, and lacerations
• Head trauma, including concussions
• Injuries to the spinal cord or back
