When the Unthinkable Happens: Understanding Head-On Collisions
Few types of crashes are more devastating than a head-on collision. These accidents often occur at high speeds and can result in severe injuries or fatalities. Survivors may face lifelong pain, extensive medical bills, and emotional trauma. At Gharibian Legal Group, we represent victims of head-on crashes and their families, fighting for full justice and financial recovery.
How Head-On Accidents Happen
Head-on collisions usually occur when a vehicle crosses the center line or enters oncoming traffic. Common causes include distracted driving, impaired driving, drowsy or fatigued driving, unsafe passing on two-lane roads, wrong-way driving, speeding or reckless maneuvers, and poor weather or low visibility.
Where and When Head-On Crashes Occur
These crashes most often happen on two-lane rural highways, at curves or hills with limited visibility, on freeway exit ramps when a driver travels the wrong way, or during nighttime or low-visibility conditions.
Common Injuries in Head-On Collisions
Because both vehicles are often moving, the force of impact is doubled, leading to catastrophic injuries such as traumatic brain injuries (TBI), spinal cord injuries or paralysis, broken bones and fractures, internal bleeding and organ damage, crush injuries, severe burns or lacerations, and fatal injuries.
Compensation for Head-On Accident Victims
If you or a loved one were injured in a head-on crash, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses and future treatment, lost income and diminished earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional trauma, disability or disfigurement, and wrongful death damages.
