The posted speed was 35 mph, i was headed westbound on 79th st in chicago illinois and the other car was headed eastbound. The other car came over into my lane of traffic, coming head on to me, i started blowing my horn trying to get his attention to avoid the accident. After i saw that he was not trying to change his course of direction i move slightly toward my right to avoid the collision, but was unsuccessful. The other vehicle hit me starting on the driver back side, my car was forced over the curb due to the impact and pushed onto the side walk.
