Elantra

  • 141,000 miles
Traveling West on adam shepherds pkwy, I had a green light, lady opposite side turned left in front of me, resulted in collision. Her fault. Witnesses said she hesitated but went anyway. She was supposed to yield. I could of been killed! my front dual air bags didn't deploy. I can hardly move my right arm, my back, my neck my chest hurts. I was taken then to norton's emergency room. I can't sit or lay down or stand too long. Can't hold on to anything. Very sore, strained muscles and bruising of muscles.
