From GibsonSingleton Virginia Injury Attorneys - T-Bone Collisions in Virginia explores how side-impact crashes happen, why they are so dangerous, and what injured Virginians should know after a serious collision on Gloucester County roads. This episode discusses T-bone crashes, also called broadside or side-impact collisions, and explains why intersections near Hayes, Gloucester County, Middlesex County, Gloucester Point, the Route 17 corridor, and the Coleman Bridge can become high-risk areas for these wrecks.
The conversation covers common causes of T-bone accidents in Virginia, including running red lights, ignoring stop signs, failing to yield the right of way, distracted driving, speeding, reckless driving, and impaired driving. It also highlights important Virginia laws such as Virginia Code § 46.2-833, Virginia Code § 46.2-825, Virginia Code § 46.2-818.2, and Virginia Code § 46.2-852, while explaining how evidence like police reports, witness statements, dashcam footage, surveillance cameras, skid marks, black box data, cell phone records, and accident reports can help determine fault.
Listeners will also learn how Virginia’s pure contributory negligence rule can affect a T-bone accident claim, including how even a small finding of fault may prevent recovery.
