T-Bone Accident Causes, Injuries, Fault & Legal Options (Forbes)

A T-bone accident can cause serious injuries. Learn who is at fault for T-bone accidents and how victims can obtain compensation for losses.

If a defect in the vehicle caused the T-bone accident, the car manufacturer, or others along the supply chain, might be to blame. If the driver who failed to yield made an illegal turn and slammed into the side of a car going straight, that motorist would be to blame. Most T-bone crashes happen when a motorist fails to yield to another driver who had the right-of-way. Pursuing claims against government entities can be more complicated than typical T-bone accident cases due to special sovereign immunity rules applied when the government is a defendant in a case. Contact an experienced T-bone accident lawyer ASAP after your crash so you can move forward with getting the money you deserve. When a T-bone accident happens, it’s important to determine if it was caused by negligence or carelessness on the part of either motorist. Regardless of which approach you take, the insurer will only pay out up to the maximum limits on the at-fault driver’s liability coverage. If the roads were poorly designed (for example, because of a badly placed stop sign no one could see), it’s possible the local government might be to blame. If you live in a no-fault state and sustained minor injuries, your personal injury protection (PIP) coverage could pay for medical bills and a portion of lost wages. In front and rear-end collisions, the hood or truck can absorb some of the impact. The driver who failed to yield ends up striking the side of the other vehicle, or “t-boning” it. When a T-bone accident happens, victims need to understand their legal options.
