Consumer Description

I WAS PROCEEDING SOUTHBOUND ON A MAJOR STREET AT ABOUT 35MPH. A PICKUP TRUCK CAME OUT OF A SMALL SIDE STREET AND CROSSED MY PATH GOING EASTBOUND WITH THE INTENT OF TURNING LEFT. MY CAR BROADSIDED THE TRUCK AT THE BACK OF THE DRIVERS DOOR AND AT THE FRONT OF THE TRUCKBED. AS I DID NOT SEE THE TRUCK UNTIL THE LAST MOMENT, I ONLY LEFT ABOUT 3 FEET OF SKID. NEITHER MY DRIVER AIRBAG NOR MY PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYED. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT MY CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS DUE TO EXTENSIVE DAMAGE.*AK
