Rear Passenger's Side: Whiplash : As with the rear driver's side, whiplash is expected, there’s a chance of the passengers head hitting the side window or the back of the front seats leading to potential head injuries, including brain bleed temporomandibular joint syndrome and ligament laxity. I remind you that these are lifetime injuries.
Head Impact: The risk of head injuries remains, especially if the passenger's head collides with the car's window or the back of the front seats. It would be the same type of injury as the driver’s side rear passenger, however, just reversed. So, the right side of the body is propelled into the B pillar, the right side of the head being propelled into the glass. It would be the right- side shoulder and arm and hip that would be propelled into the door, or the B pillar and it would be the right side that would recoil back into the C pillar or the rear window glass.
