Minivans and sport utility vehicles can carry several passengers, which means more people may be exposed to sudden force when two vehicles come together. Occupants can move against seat belts, airbags, doors, seats, or dashboards.
Differences in vehicle height and weight can also affect how forces are transmitted through each passenger compartment. Side or angled contact may place added stress on the head, neck, chest, back, and limbs.
Travel speed, seating position, restraint use, and contact angle can influence injury severity. Medical evaluations may identify bruising, muscle strains, fractures, concussion, or internal trauma that is not immediately noticeable.
