COMMON TYPES OF CAR ACCIDENTS
OUR LOS ANGELES CAR ACCIDENT ATTORNEYS TYPICALLY SEE A FEW DIFFERENT TYPE OF ACCIDENTS.
LOW SPEED IMPACT ACCIDENTS: CAR ACCIDENTS THAT TAKE PLACE UNDER 10 MPH, ARE CONSIDERED LOW SPEED IMPACTS. TYPICALLY, THESE TYPES OF ACCIDENTS RESULT IN WHIPLASH.
FRONT IMPACTS: FRONT IMPACTS TAKE PLACE WHEN THE FRONT OF A DRIVER’S VEHICLE, HITS SOMETHING – LIKE A WALL, A TREE, ANIMAL, OR OTHER OBJECT.
REAR END ACCIDENT: IMPACTS FROM THE REAR ARE VERY COMMON. THIS IS THE #1 COMMON FORM OF CAR AND AUTO RELATED ACCIDENT. IT HAPPENS WHEN A CAR, TRUCK, OR SUV, HITS THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. OFTEN, THE DRIVER WHO WAS IN THE REAR – IS AT FAULT IN THESE ACCIDENTS. WE’VE TYPICALLY SEEN DRIVERS DISTRACTED – BY TEXTING, OR SOMETHING ELSE, CAUSE THESE ACCIDENTS.
SIDE COLLISIONS: SIDE COLLISIONS RESULT IN A DRIVERS DOOR, OR PASSENGER DOOR, GETTING HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. INJURIES CAN INCLUDE CONCUSSIONS, OR EVEN BROKEN BONES.
