What Are Side Impact Accidents?

In 17% of fatal Florida car crashes, the initial point of impact was the right and left sides of the vehicle, according to The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

If you were hurt in a side-impact accident, you can hold the driver who struck you liable for your injuries. You can initiate a lawsuit based on negligence.

Some ways in which a driver can violate the duty of care often lead to a side-impact crash. For example:

🔹 Speed through a light at an intersection
🔹 Fail to yield the right of way
🔹 Drive while distracted, e.g. texting or eating
