Head-on collisions often result in fatalities. A head-on crash between two vehicles traveling at 50 mph is equivalent to a moving vehicle running into a stationary object at 100 mph. These types of accidents usually occur due to lane or road departure by one of the involved vehicles. Head-on crashes can also result from wrong-way entry of a vehicle onto an off-ramp or wrong side of the road, or as is prevalent in New Orleans, a vehicle going the wrong way on a one-way street.
These types of accidents can be life changing or even deadly.
Common injuries from head-on collisions are:
- Head Trauma
- Brain Injury
- Neck & Back Injury
- Spinal Cord Damage
- Internal Organ Damage
- Cuts & Bruises
If you are the victim of a head-on crash you may be entitled to damages for car repairs, rental car, medical bills, lost income and pain and suffering. Call James B. Guest attorney at law to schedule your FREE initial consultation TODAY! (504) 466-8266
