Intersection Crashes Cause Catastrophic Injuries. We Fight Back.
T-bone collisions at Oklahoma intersections cause some of the most severe injuries we see. When another driver runs a red light or fails to yield, the consequences can be life-altering. We hold them accountable.
Oklahoma's Dangerous Intersections
According to NHTSA research, approximately 40% of all crashes occur at or near intersections. Oklahoma City and Tulsa have some of the most dangerous intersections in the region.
~40%
Of all U.S. crashes occur at intersections

Fatalities per year from intersection crashes nationwide
Types of Intersection Accidents
We handle all types of intersection collision cases throughout Oklahoma.
T-Bone (Side-Impact) Collisions
When one vehicle strikes the side of another at a perpendicular angle—often the most dangerous type of intersection crash.
Red Light Running
Drivers who fail to stop at red lights cause some of the most violent intersection crashes.
Failure to Yield
Left-turn accidents, unprotected turns, and failure to yield right-of-way at stop signs.
Yellow Light Dilemmas
Drivers who speed up to 'make the light' instead of stopping safely.
How We Prove Who Ran the Light
Traffic Cameras
Many Oklahoma intersections have red-light cameras. We subpoena footage before it's deleted.
Nearby Surveillance
Gas stations, banks, and businesses near intersections often capture crashes on their security cameras.
Signal Timing Records
We obtain traffic signal timing data to determine light sequences at the exact moment of impact.
Damage Analysis
Vehicle damage patterns reveal impact direction, speed, and which vehicle was in motion.
Oklahoma's Traffic Signal Law
"Vehicular traffic facing a steady circular red signal alone shall stop at a clearly marked stop line..."
Violating this statute creates a presumption of negligence. Combined with video evidence, it makes proving liability much easier.
Frequently Asked Questions
We gather traffic camera footage, police reports, witness statements, and analyze traffic signal timing. Many Oklahoma City intersections have red-light cameras. We also use accident reconstruction experts to analyze vehicle damage patterns and determine impact angles and speeds.
The side of a vehicle offers the least protection—there's no crumple zone like in frontal or rear impacts. Occupants on the struck side absorb the full force of the collision. T-bone crashes frequently cause traumatic brain injuries, broken ribs, spinal damage, and internal organ damage. Fatality rates are significantly higher than other collision types.
This is common. We subpoena traffic camera footage, nearby business surveillance, and dashcam videos. Cell phone records can prove if either driver was distracted. We interview witnesses and hire accident reconstruction experts when needed. The physical evidence—skid marks, vehicle damage, final resting positions—often reveals the truth.
Yes. If a faulty traffic signal contributed to your accident, the government entity responsible for maintaining it may be liable. Oklahoma's Governmental Tort Claims Act allows lawsuits against cities and counties, but there are strict notice requirements and shorter deadlines. Contact us immediately if you suspect signal malfunction.
You can recover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and property damage. For catastrophic injuries, we calculate future medical needs and lost earning capacity. If the other driver was reckless (running a red light, racing), punitive damages may be available.
Under Oklahoma's modified comparative negligence rule (23 O.S. § 13), you can recover compensation as long as you're less than 51% at fault. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. Insurance companies often try to shift blame—we fight back with evidence proving the other driver's responsibility.
They Ran the Light. You Pay the Price. We Fight Back.
Intersection crashes often leave victims with catastrophic injuries. We investigate aggressively and fight for full compensation.
