Being T-boned or Broadsided means a car accident where the front end of a vehicle collides with the side of another vehicle. T-bone accidents can be extremely dangerous and even deadly for the vehicle occupants--particularly the ones in the car that receives the side impact. These collisions result in a side-to-side whipping motion of the occupant that is much different than the acceleration-deceleration motion caused by a rear-end collision or a head-on collision. The side-to-side motion can result in the driver and/or passengers’ heads impacting the door, windows, or pillars. This type of impact can easily produce head injuries ranging from lacerations and bruises to brain injuries, skull fractures, and concussions.
