Default Got into a huge accident!!!

Woman tboned me, driver's side is destroyed. Her car has minor scuffs on the bumper. Got a citation for failure to yield, I have strong reason to believe the woman was going too fast. Have pictures, point of impact on the road and where she was initially would indicate she was going 2 times the limit. Got profiled, asian guy with a nice import. Cops said woman was dazed and might complain about whiplash. Gonna call insurance.

I hate my life... right now I really want to crawl up and die. :sad: My neck hurts, my ribs are sore and I really don't remember much after the impact. The cops didn't want to give me a warning, my clean record means nothing to them. Insurance is going up, pts on my license, I am broke and don't know where to pay for repairs from.

Again... why me?

Get better man. If you are still hurting, go to the ER and get checked out. Better safe than sorry.

sorry to hear bro. but if you're at fault, there's not much you can do unless you got witnesses that can testify she was travelling too fast and being negligent. i take it you don't have two-way coverage. everybody gets into accidents, so it's not just you. only thing to do now is be careful and don't let it happen again. hope you feel better.

At the distance she was I should have easily cleared, but she tboned me. I admit I have to blame for this, but she got away with nothing. There is no way in hell if she was doing 15 she could have hit me where and when she did. But they don't believe me, why should they she magically found a witness that wasn't there and the cops never let me say a word. I was being pestered to state I ran the sign and I said NO I didn't I came to a stop and then went when I thought there was enough room to go. The cops took no pictures, I am the only one with pictures. Her car has scuffs, my driver's side door is gone.
