“I was stationary behind a car turning left on hwy 154 s in coweta co, ga, when I was hit from behind by another automobile going approximately 50+ MPH. The driver who hit me never applied his brakes, which pushed my car into the SUV in front of me. The car I was pushed into was shoved 30+ yards down the road. My airbags did not deploy and my driver's side seat broke.”
