| Description of the problem | I was involved in a head on collision on 10/19/14. The adverse driver turned left in front of me and hit the front of my 2013 toyota camry, pushing the car up over the curb. The steering wheel airbag deployed as did the airbag from under the dash. The deployment of the lower airbag caused a large hematoma on my right shin, and an open laceration/burn and hematoma on my left shin which became infected. The wounds are documented in the ambulance report, hospital report and report from my treating physician who prescribed medications to reduce the infection. The car was subsequently assessed a total loss and sold to my insurance company. I retain photographs of the damaged vehicle. |
