Consumer Description
On June 1, 2018 which was a Friday and the time was around 5pm. My co worker and I just finished a patient at the Boise Christian Retirement Village. I proceeded to enter the 2017 Ford Escape to start the engine so that the inside would cool down. As I exited the vehicle to speak to my co worker who was parked 2 cars down. We were discussing a situation about a coworker and she states " Danielle your car is rolling back". At that moment I did not know who was in the building the ford was heading. I ran after the ford and opened the driver side door and grabbed the steering wheel. The drivers door knocked me down and the drivers front tire ran me over starting from the foot , leg, pelvic, chest and then my head. I sustained numerous injuries. I had 5 fractured ribs, a hole in my right lung, 2 fractures on my face, several hematomas. My head was squeezed like grape and had a 15 inch laceration. I suffer everyday from this accident. I have scars and a lot of PTSD. I am currently driving the 2019 Ford Escape for my work. Now I am scared to death and dont know what to do
