“Driving my 09 Jeep patriot approximately 25mph when another vehicle was in a blind spot and drove into the front right side of my vehicle, pushing the front left side into a wall. The airbags never went off as the car is now totaled. Other drivers airbags went off. I recieved attention at the hospital for whiplash and a concussion from hitting my head off of the a-frame and headrest.”
