Understanding T Bone Accidents Under New York Law
In New York, a T bone accident occurs when the front of one vehicle strikes the side of another, often at intersections. These collisions frequently result in serious injuries due to limited side-impact protection. Under NY CPLR Article 14-A, New York follows a pure comparative fault rule: your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault, but you can still recover even if you are partially at fault. For auto accidents, Insurance Law § 5102 requires you to meet a “serious injury” threshold to claim pain and suffering damages. Founded in 1997 by Mr. Sris, former prosecutor — Law Offices Of SRIS, P.C. brings 120+ years combined legal experience.
