Head Injury Risks in Two-Car Collisions
Crashes involving head injuries—such as the one reported on Homestead Avenue—should never be taken lightly. Even in lower-speed collisions, occupants can strike the steering wheel, dashboard, or window, resulting in concussions, lacerations, or traumatic brain injuries (TBI).
In urban areas like Hartford, two-car accidents frequently occur due to congested intersections, stop-and-go traffic, or drivers failing to yield. When more than one party is injured, the scene can become complex quickly, requiring rapid triage and coordinated emergency response.
Head injury symptoms may not always be visible at the scene. Victims should be monitored for dizziness, confusion, nausea, or changes in behavior in the hours following the crash. Immediate medical care and thorough documentation are essential for both health and legal reasons.
