New Mexico T-bone Crash Statistics
According to the 2023 New Mexico Crash Annual Report, T-bone collisions made up 37.5% of fatal crashes, and 40.6% of crashes that involved an injury, based on the “First Harmful Event Relative Direction of Travel”, even though they only made up 29.3% of total crashes. The only type of crash deadlier than a T-bone in New Mexico is the head-on collision, in which two cars going in the opposite direction collide, although deadly T-bone accidents are more common.
Common Injuries Caused by T-Bone or Side-Impact Collisions
Those who have been in T-bone collisions may experience a number of severe injuries. Common injuries from a side-impact collision could include:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Broken bones (including ribs)
- Internal bleeding
- Whiplash
- Soft tissue damage
- Chronic pain
- Nerve damage
- PTSD
- Organ damage
Some of these injuries may be difficult to prove, so finding a personal injury lawyer who knows how the insurance companies will try to downplay your injuries is essential. Not only will Ron Bell Injury Lawyers fight to ensure you get the care you need, but we’ll also make sure the insurance companies don’t lowball you for injuries sustained in the crash.
Common Causes of T-Bone Accidents
The common causes of T-bone or side impact collisions generally relate to vehicle positioning. For example, a car running a red light or stop sign when cross traffic has the right-of-way can cause a T-bone collision. In addition, a car turning left while oncoming traffic doesn’t stop can cause a T-bone accident.
Additionally, factors that could cause side impact collisions are:
- Adverse weather conditions (causing cars to slide or restricting a vehicle’s ability to stop)
- Impaired driving (which could lead to running stop signs or red lights)
- Distracted driving (which could limit the driver’s ability to see oncoming traffic)
- Speeding
