Why would a person have difficulty in breathing after a car accident caused a hole in the thorax?

A hole in the thorax can cause "Pneumothorax". This is a condition where ambient air enters the chest cavity between the lungs and the lining of the chest cavity. Pneumothorax can cause the lungs to collapse because it allows air to fill the cavity without filling the lungs. If the lungs collapse you will suffocate unless you receive medical attention.
