One of the most common causes of T-bone accidents is a failure to yield the right of way. For example, if a driver makes a left turn without yielding to oncoming traffic, they may collide with a vehicle traveling straight through the intersection. In such cases, the driver who failed to yield the right of way may be considered at fault.
Another common cause of T-bone accidents is distracted driving. When a driver is distracted, they may not see other cars approaching, resulting in a collision. Distracted driving can include activities such as texting, talking on the phone, eating, or adjusting the radio. In cases where distracted driving was a factor in the accident, the distracted driver may be considered at fault.
Speeding is also a common cause of T-bone accidents. When a driver is traveling at a high rate of speed, they may not be able to stop in time to avoid a collision. In such cases, the speeding driver may be considered at fault.
