The vehicle was in motion in hit a midsize honda accord head on. I was traveling straight on a city street. I was faulted since I was reaching for my GPS navigation device that had fallen on the floor. The cause for the malfunction to me is unknown. I was definitely injured in the accident but I only had liability insurance at the time and it only covered the other party since I was faulted. …”
