Why T-Bone Accidents Cause Severe Injuries
The door of a vehicle provides minimal protection compared to the engine compartment and trunk. In a side-impact collision the occupant on the struck side is directly in the path of the intruding vehicle or object with only a few inches of door structure between them and the force of impact. This is why T-bone accidents disproportionately cause serious injuries including traumatic brain injuries, rib fractures and internal injuries, hip and pelvis fractures, spinal injuries, and fatalities — particularly to drivers and passengers on the struck side.
