Description of the problem | I was passing through an intersection in a 2005 chevy aveo, i was hit head on by a ford ranger pickup truck, both vehicles were totaled. The other drivers airbag had gone off but mine did not. As a result he was fine, but i was knocked temporarily unconscious. I spent the rest of that day in a hospital getting x-rays done and was laid up in bed for the next week on pain killers and muscle relaxers. The pain (primarily in my neck, upper back, and my head which hit the steering wheel) has still yet to go away now almost 3 weeks later. |
