| Description of the problem | >1. I rented a 2010 toyota camry from hertz. The vehicle was fitted with side curtain and front airbags. 2. On september 14th 2010 i was driving southbound down a highway in alabama at a speed of 55 mph. A ford f-150 driven by someone under the influence decided to cross the highway from my left. The f-150 struck my rental vehicle in the drivers side door. The f-150 then pushed the camry to the right off the road into a deep drainage ditch alongside the highway. The camry went front first into the ditch wall smashing in the front of the car. 3. The vehicle i am told was found to be "totaled". Their was a crease from the initial impact from the front drivers wheel well extending back to the passengers door. The front bumper/lights were also destroyed. The car was towed and taken back into possession by hertz rental company. 4. My concern is that the airbags did not deploy. 5. This accident has resulted in suffering from multiple medical issues. I have not been able to return to work as of this date 19 october 2010. |
