Grand Cherokee 4WD

I was stopped at a red light wan about one minute later I was rear-ended by a Chevy Blazer. I had my seat belt and shoulder harness on but the top roller on the shoulder harness did not grab. For that reason my head hit first the steering wheel and then the windshield, leaving me with a fractured nose and contusion on my forehead. I believe the Blazer must have been traveling around 45 mph because that is the speed limit on that road and he did not try and stop at all (complete inattention): There were no skid marks until after where he hit us. We were sent clear throught the intersection and up the sidewalk. Luckily there was no cross traffic or pedestrians.
