I was traveling southbound on rte 13 with my 4 children. The speed limit is 55mph and the flow of traffic is between 55-60 mph...which is the speed I was driving. As im approaching to proceed pass intersection rte 13 & eden allen rd there's a car at the stop sign which is supposed to wait for rte 13 to clear before entering. The driver decided to dash out to go across directly in front of me. I slammed on my breaks and tried avoiding collision but it wasn't enough time. None of my airbags deployed causing my upper body to slam against steering wheel causing injuries. Myself and my passengers where taken to the hospital for evaluation. My vehicle was taken to caliber collison where to this day im being told that nothing was wrong with my vehicle and the repairs are almost complete. Because of the accident myself along with 2 of my passengers were injured. Two of us are in therapy. I submitted images below but was unsure to upload police report since it has sensitive information. Either contact state farm with my name, etc or my email for police report and further information.

I have a totaled car due to a wreck. The airbags did not deploy even though the car was hit multiple times extremely hard.

Wall triana hwy madison was being paved on Wednesday 2/27/19. They had sprayed some type of liquid tar on the road for prepping. My car is covered with the black substance and I am unable to get it off. It has covered my rear window and back of car. It is also on my side door panels and under my vehicle, tires and rims. This is a brand new car.
