On march 3, 2016 I was driving to work and was hit on the drivers side door by another vehicle causing thousands of dollars in damage. The other driver crossed the street from one parking lot to the other and that is when my vehicle was hit. The air bags did not deploy. My vehicle was in motion on a city street and the vehicle that hit my vehicle was also in motion. L will not be supplying any reports such as police reports. I would like to email it along with any other documentation you require.
