Is this concussive?
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:

(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.)
A fast swerve is very different from a T bone impact. The impact is the major factor. You might get neck soreness and tightness from a quick swerve. What symptoms are you having? |
I don't know what symptoms you have, but that would certainly be enough to give a person a big adrenaline rush = fear, anxiety.

Stop checking for symptoms. A car movement without hitting your head cannot exceed 1.7 Gs. It takes 60 Gs or more for a concussion.
If you run through the list of common symptoms looking for symptoms, your anxious brain will present those symptoms. |
