“Our vehicle was struck from the drivers side - rear at an estimated 60mph speed difference. (it is thought we were slowed to approx 25mph, other car was probably 80mph or more). This happened on i95 in lumberton nc. The other vehicle was in left lane, we were in right lane. The other vehicle swerved into our lane hitting us quartering from left rear. Force was hard enough to deform right side of car which came in contact with nothing. As the driver, I struck the interior with enough force to cause a severe concussion. …”
