Consumer Description

I WAS ABOUT TWO CAR LENGTHS BEHIND AN 18 WHEELER ON HWY 231 SOUTH BOUND IN MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA. I WENT TO GET OVER TO THE LEFT TO PASS, WHEN MY VEHICLE STARTED TO HYDROPLANE AND SWAY SIDE TO SIDE. MY FRONT RIGHT SIDE OF MY VEHICLE IMPACTED THE BACK RIGHT CORNER OF THE 18 WHEELER. MY VEHICLE THEN FLIPPED ON ITS SIDE, THEN UPSIDE DOWN. MY SIDE AIRBAGS DID DEPLOY, BUT MY STEERING WHEEL NOR FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYED. THE 18 WHEELER DID NOT STOP, MAYBE IT DID NOT FEEL THE IMPACT. IT WAS A WET AND STORMY MORNING ON 2/24/20, @ APPROXIMATELY 5:25-5:27 A.M.. THE REASON THAT I DID NOT PASS THE 18 WHEELER EARLIER WAS DUE TO STANDING WATER IN THE LEFT LANE. I WAS TAKEN TO BAPTIST SOUTH MEDICAL VENTER BY MY MOTHER IN LAW, IN WHICH I HAD A CT DONE ON MY NECK, AND AN X-RAY ON MY LEFT SHOULDER. I ALSO MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR WEDNESDAY 2/26/20 FOR PAIN AND SPASMS. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT THE VEHICLE'S IMPACT WAS IN THE FRONT, AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY IN THE FRONT. I WOULD LIKE THERE TO BE AN INVESTIGATION AS TO WHETHER THEY SHOULD'VE DEPLOYED, AND IF WHY DIDN'T THEY IN SUCH AN SEVERE ACCIDENT.*DT *TR*DT*JB
