“On 9/23/2011, I was driving 15-20 MPH when a dodge charger struck my Jeep on my driverside door causing my Jeep to lose control and roll completely. My side airbags did not deploy causing a concussion. I have some memory loss and back and neck injuries. My Jeep rolled onto a median causing the roof to cave in from the center of the car to the passenger side during the roll over.”
