Traumatic brain injuries are one of the most devastating injuries caused by truck accidents. These types of injuries can occur anytime there is a sudden trauma to the head. The trauma may involve an object striking or penetrating a person’s skull, resulting in physical damage to the skull or brain. In other cases, traumatic brain injuries are caused when the head shakes violently or strikes an object.
How Do Truck Accidents Cause Traumatic Brain Injuries?There are various ways a traumatic brain injury can happen in a truck accident. A person's head may hit the dashboard, the airbag or a piece of debris or glass could strike their head. Depending on the damage and force, the severity of the traumatic brain injury will vary. Injuries can range from slight swelling and bruising that doesn't cause any long-term effects to severe damage that can cause skull fractures, brain herniation, and even death. Pictures of severe traumatic brain injuries often require long-term medical care that can cost millions of dollars over a person's life.
