Scenarios like the Gloucester County accident at intersections may lead to side-impact crashes or even head-on collisions and cause significant trauma to vehicle occupants. When two large vehicles that may be carrying multiple passengers collide, the results may be much more dire. Serious injuries including paralysis and traumatic brain injury, or fatalities may follow this type of accident.
