How do side impact accidents happen?

In many side impact accident cases, a driver is struck in the side by a negligent driver in an intersection who disregarded a traffic sign or light. There is often nothing a driver who is hit can do to avoid a side-impact collision, or being T-boned. Injuries often are severe because the occupants have little to protect them from the impact of the other vehicle. In a head-on collision or a rear-end collision, the occupants may actually be safer from serious injury due to the crumple space that absorbs the impact.

Types of injuries in side impact accidents

Serious injuries in side-impact collisions include internal injury, traumatic brain injury and paralysis. Catastrophic injuries can lead to skyrocketing medical bills, loss of income and pain and suffering, along with other significant losses.

It's important to contact an auto accident attorney in Dallas/Fort Worth promptly to learn about your rights. Typically, an insurance adjuster may ask an accident victim to put something in writing or make an oral statement, which will reduce the amount of compensation they pay you. Don't fall for their tricks.
