T-Bone Accidents in Pennsylvania
T-bone accidents, which occur when one vehicle strikes the side of another, are particularly dangerous due to the reduced protection for passengers on the impacted side. Such crashes often happen at intersections or when drivers fail to yield, run red lights, or are distracted.
Scranton, like many urban areas in Pennsylvania, experiences a notable number of traffic accidents annually. Busy roads like Lackawanna Ave see significant traffic, increasing the potential for collisions. State data emphasizes the importance of adhering to traffic laws and practicing defensive driving, especially at intersections where visibility and timing are crucial.
After a vehicle accident, individuals involved should seek medical evaluation, even if injuries are not immediately apparent. Documenting the scene and consulting professionals can assist in navigating insurance claims and potential legal actions.
