Road safety report
From a road safety report from the Spanish Dirección General de Tráfico.
A table listing the different types of road traffic collisions (with my translations so far):
Colisión frontal -> head-on collisions
**Colisión frontal-lateral** -> ?
Colisión lateral -> side collisions
Colisión por alcance -> ?
Colisión múltiple -> multiple collisions
Colisión obstáculo calzada -> collisions with fixed roadside objects
Atropello -> collisions with pedestrians
Vuelco en calzada -> ?
Salida calzada izquierda -> Exit to the left
Salida calzada derecha -> Exit to the right
Can anyone help with a suitable term in English which fits?
Could colisión frontal-lateral just be called "angled collision" in English?
The other terms will be posted in separate questions for more points.
Many thanks.

Head-on and side collision
Both at once, I think, using the terminology you have used elsewhere.

Frontal-lateral collision
The literal "lateral" is OK in English.

Can't find the precise combination, but I think frontal-lateral, or frontal-and-lateral, would be OK. Must be a corner impact, I suppose.

: Hi, long time no see or hear! Hope you are well Jack. Good to catch up with you again. Do you remember me from A.E. Technical Translation Services, that was trading up to about 6 years ago?
