Two days ago I was going to work in the morning and I got t-boned by a Ford Ranger pickup truck. I was making a left at a flashing yellow arrow, he was on coming going straight. 35 mile per hour zone, he told me when I asked he was going "40 or 50," then told the cop when asked "35 or 40." I was rushed to the hospital under the suspicion of a broken rib (seat belt and or my right elbow.) No internal bleeding, no broken ribs, had a laceration on my forehead & a bloody nose from a piece of trim (or pieces) that struck me in the face. 2 stitches in my forehead. Ribs hurt like H*ll I would be surprised if there isn't a hairline fracture on my rib they just couldn't see. Drive careful everyone!

Thankfully I had no passenger, as I believe they would probably be dead. The pass door is pushed in about a foot and a half. its even impinging on the bottom seat bolster, The EMTs said I'm alive because I was wearing my seat belt, and the car's safety systems. The Pass side airbags deployed, popped the speaker cover trim and the dash trim off, as well as the door handle trim. I'm sure one of them hit me in the face for the nosebleed and laceration on the forehead. I was pouring out the blood.

Went to Witch Wich and ordered a sandwich under the name "Not Dead" later that night.

Well, this is a shitty first post:(
Glad you're okay! It's amazing how many people survive accidents in these cars with relatively minor injuries.

Shame but more importantly is you made it out safe.
