Common Fact Patterns Concerning Side-Impact Truck Accidents

One of the most common causes of a side-impact accident with a truck is when a truck is traveling down a major road and another vehicle tries to cross the road but does so in an unsafe manner, which causes a collision. Vehicles not merging into a lane safely can lead to a crash. Also, when a driver runs a red light or stop sign, it can lead to a side-impact truck accident.

Negligent driving is the leading cause of a side-impact truck crash. After an accident, a side-impact truck collision lawyer in Chicago could investigate the case to determine who the at-fault party is.

Impact of a Side-Impact Truck Collision

Crashes with trucks typically lead to severe vehicle damage. When it is a T-bone crash, the vehicle that got hit will more than likely have damaged doors. More serious than vehicle damage is the damage these types of crashes can do to people. Individuals in side-impact truck collisions usually suffer serious injuries. The force of the impact can lead to broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, internal injuries, spinal cord injuries, whiplash, and other injuries.

What to Do After a T-Bone Crash

After being involved in a side-impact collision, the driver should make sure they are okay as well as any others involved in the crash. They should then call the police and get medical help to the scene. The police can file a report on the accident. If someone is injured, they should seek medical attention immediately. After getting medical care, the person should reach out to a seasoned Chicago side-impact truck accident attorney.
