What Causes T-Bone Accidents?
A T-bone accident, also known as a side-impact or broadside collision, describes a crash between two vehicles where the front of one car strikes the side of another vehicle. These accidents are most common at intersections, where two lanes of opposite-direction traffic intersect.
Common causes of T-bone car accidents in Texas include:
- Running a red light: if a reckless driver runs a red light at a traffic-control signaled intersection, he or she could cause a T-bone accident in the intersection after colliding with a driver who had the green light.
- Failing to yield the right-of-way: if a driver violates a traffic law by failing to yield the right-of-way to another motorist, this could lead to a T-bone accident. Rolling through a stop sign or failing to yield to a driver with the right-of-way can cause these accidents.
- Reckless driving behaviors: dangerous actions behind the wheel increase the odds of a catastrophic side-impact crash. Examples include speeding, drunk driving, drowsy driving, distracted driving, texting and driving, unsafe passing, driving on the wrong side of the road, and weaving in and out of traffic.
Once the cause of your T-bone car accident is identified, the liable or financially responsible parties can be identified. The most common at-fault party in this type of crash is another driver. Evidence to establish a driver’s fault for your T-bone accident may include eyewitness statements, a police accident report, photographs and video footage, and crash reconstruction.
