A side impact or side collision is a very common type of road accident and they are most likely to occur at a junction where a vehicle pulls out into another vehicles path. Sometimes a side impact can occur in a car park or when a red light has been jumped. Usually the higher the speed the greater the damage to both the vehicles and the people involved. Injuries sustained from a side impact are likely to be more serious than that of a rear end or front impact collision as there is less protection and no buffer zone. The person might take the full impact of the crash if there are no side air bags installed.

Case Study

"A young woman who was badly in a car crash that killed her two friends has been awarded £85,000 accident compensation. The Ford Fiesta spun off the road, flattened a telegraph pole and crashed into a tree. A 16 year old girl died in the crash, as did a 19 year old man. The claimant won £30,000 for loss of future earnings. The judge also reduced her accident compensation claim for "pain, suffering and loss of amenity" by 15% because she was not wearing a seatbelt."
