What is the name of your state? Texas
Was in an auto accident on 10/20 of this year. I got the ticket for failure to yield right of way, when a speeding car hit me as I tried to make a turn, the insurance company said speed was definately involved, and i should make a claim...as of today, there is no other insurance company, there was no proof of insurance for this person on the scene, as well as her child was not in a safety seat and the car does not belong to the driver.
I am also fearing being sued, as I am on disability. I've been told by law they cannot take my disability, but if i were to get married they could still sue me.
I am in total disbelief! I was accused of "driver inattention" and failing to yield right of way, even though I looked before turning! There were cars coming, but I had efficient amount of time to turn. My speed was 10 mph max, the car probably hit me at about 45 miles per hour, totalling my vehicle at a sum of just under 8,000 dollars. The cop said she wasnt speeding, but he wasn't there. I have pictures of skid marks this woman left, as well as the car she was neck in neck with at the time I looked to make my turn (was able to stop before the intersection lines as well as the car directly behind this woman who was stopped 6 cars back. She came out of nowhere. Anyway....can anyone answer as to what to do?
thanks,
stephanie
