What is a Broadside Collision? - Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George P.C.

From Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George P.C. – What Is a Broadside Collision? explores the nature of side-impact crashes, commonly known as T-bone collisions. This episode offers a comprehensive look at how these accidents occur, typically at intersections, and highlights the serious injuries they can cause. The discussion also includes key legal insights for victims navigating the aftermath of a broadside collision.

Broadside collisions happen when the front of one vehicle strikes the side of another, creating a T-shape on impact. Because the sides of vehicles have less structural protection than the front or rear, these crashes are often severe. Contributing factors can include distracted driving, failing to yield, running red lights, and even poor road conditions or vehicle defects.

In Pennsylvania, broadside collisions are assessed under the state’s modified comparative negligence rule. This means a victim’s compensation may be reduced if they are partially at fault for the accident. Understanding how this rule works is essential when building a case or seeking compensation after a crash.
