I was riding in the back of a car earlier today, on the freeway (about 70 mph), when the driver was attempting to change lanes (the lane to the left) but thought a car was in the way and immediately swerved to the right, back into the original lane. This was a very short and rapid swerve to the right while maintaining a very high speed, to where it felt like the car was almost going to roll over. I've had quite a few symptoms since the incident, but I'm wondering if it could be a new concussion?
The closest thing I could find on it was this:
Quote:
Concussions can occur as a result of two events: an impact to the head, or a rapid change in movement. If you are in a vehicle moving forward and another vehicle T-bones you, the sudden movement of your brain changing from forward motion to sideways motion could cause a concussion.
