Car accidents happen every day. It is important to know how to handle them properly to save time and money and reduce the risk of being injured during a car accident. This blog post will go over 6 types of car accidents and what you should do if you are ever involved in one. Let’s get straight to the list.

The Rear-End Collision

A rear-end collision is when a vehicle slams into the back of another car, which can happen for several reasons. The driver may not have noticed that the car in front stopped and crashed right into them; this kind of accident often happens in bad weather conditions or at night. Another reason why someone could be at fault in a rear-end crash would be because they were driving too closely to the car in front of them.

If you are in an accident, make sure that the police will write down their information about what happened for everyone involved by calling 911 or your local police station. If someone is hurt in a car accident in Pasadena, call an ambulance immediately, and if someone’s car is damaged, it would be wise to take photos of everything before anything gets touched. Ensure you also get a lawyer to help with your case. This way, you can use this information in court, and you can make a good case for yourself.

The Sideswipe Accident

A sideswipe is when one car hits another on its side or front corner. This might happen because of driver negligence, like not paying attention while driving or texting and driving; it also happens in bad weather conditions.

If you are in a sideswipe accident, be sure to report it by calling 911 or your local police station if hurt and take photos of the damage on both cars for evidence later. If you can, call a tow truck to move your car from the road and avoid any further accidents. Do not forget to check and attend to injuries.

The Head-On Collision

A head-on collision happens when two cars collide in the same way as a rear-end accident, but this time from opposite directions. This type of accident is considered one of the most dangerous types, as it can lead to serious injuries and even death.

You should call 911 immediately if you are in a head-on collision because this accident requires medical attention from an ambulance right away. Ensure that both cars move out of the road so other drivers will not get hurt or involved in another accident. Also, take photos of the car damage and injuries if you need any proof for a court case later on. Be sure not to move injured people if they are seriously hurt because this could worsen their injuries or even cause death.

The T-bone or Side-Impact Collision

A T-bone or side-impact collision happens when a car hits another on its front corner. This type of accident is usually caused by driver negligence, like not paying attention to the road while driving, especially since it can lead to serious injuries and even death in some cases.

If you are involved in this kind of accident, call 911 immediately to report it and request medical attention if hurt. Make sure that both cars move out of the road so other drivers won’t get involved in an accident with either car. Then take photos of all damages on both vehicles for evidence later (do not forget to insure yourself against any possible damage by getting your own insurance).

A Rollover Accident

A rollover happens when a car flips over because of the road conditions, driver negligence, or driving too fast. This type of accident can also result in serious injuries and even death if it is not attended to immediately.

If you are involved in such an event as a rollover accident, call 911 to request medical attention for anyone hurt. If possible, move the car off of the road to avoid any other accidents and make sure that no one else will get in it (if there are passengers inside who might be seriously hurt, they should not try to escape because their injuries could become worse or even cause death).

An Underride Accident

 

An underride is an accident that happens when a car runs into the back of another and goes underneath it. This can happen due to driver negligence, speeding, or bad weather conditions like a foggy vision at night.

If you are involved in such an event as an underride accident, call 911 to request medical attention for anyone hurt. It might be impossible to move the cars, so make sure to put warning signs to alert other drivers on the road of a potential hazard. Be sure to take photos of all damages on both vehicles for evidence later (do not forget to insure yourself against any possible damage).

Many types of car accidents can result in injury or even death. If you know how to handle them properly, it will be easier for you to avoid any damages and injuries, so make sure to follow the steps above.
