DUI-Related T-Bone Collision with Resulting Injuries
Case Study
Case Overview
The client was driving straight through an intersection with a green light when the defendant, coming from the opposite direction, suddenly T-boned the client’s vehicle. The impact caused the client's car to spin out and crash into nearby bushes. The driver’s door was jammed, forcing the client to crawl out through the passenger door. Shortly after, the police arrived on the scene, took statements, and informed the client that the defendant had been arrested for DUI. The client's car was towed away, and the client called a friend for a ride home.
That night, around 3 AM, the client began experiencing severe pain. With no doctors available over the weekend, the client waited until Monday, the 1st, to seek treatment at Morning Chiropractic.
