“I was turning into the driveway of a shopping center when I was rear-ended by another car. The force of the collision caused both active headrests to launch. The force of the active headrest hitting the back of my head caused a concussion and for two days a loss of all memories going back approximately 4 years. I was hospitalized and stayed one night. Most of my memories have returned but I have absolutely no memory of the day of the accident pre, during, or post accident. …”
