Description of the problem	On 3/18/14 i was stopped at a traffic light that was red and was at the bottom of a ramp located in interstate 225 colorado going south. When the light turned green i preceded to cross the intersection/ passed the south lanes who were at a red light and all cars were stopped. When i preceded to cross in front of the north bound lane a car suddenly went through a red light and smashed into the front of my car turning the car around in a 180 degrees or more. The impact to the front of the car, fenders and hood was completely damaged from the full impact of the other car. The radiator and air conditioner were leaking and damaged and my vehicle needed to be towed from the scene after the police report was completed. The air bags did not inflate and i incurred multiple bruising from neck to lower back and mid thigh as documented by my doctor.
