Well, My Summer's Over

[Crankin]

You need a lawyer. My DH has one for his case against the woman who turned left in front of him last year.
Insurance companies do all sorts of things that are not nice. Get a copy of the police report and see if there were any witnesses.

Holy cow, glad you're still here to tell the tale!!

I'll second Crankin, get a lawyer now. Pretty much no one is on your side in these things so getting someone to represent you and your needs is very important.

First off, I'm glad that the accident wasn't more serious! Take some time to let your body heal, and like all the others have mentioned... get yourself a lawyer. You are going to need someone to look out for you, no one else is going to... especially the insurance companies. AND definitely get a copy of the police report.

Take care, and heal quickly.

How scary! So glad you weren't hurt worse! What a stupid mistake on the driver's part. And the officer, well totally ridiculous! So sorry for your pain and ruined summer. There are some really busy areas on that trail! But this still should not have happened and totally not your fault! Take the summer to rest in the backyard lounge chair and get back at it as soon as you are ready. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
