November 10, 2017 - I was t-boned by a motorist (who ran the light) on the drivers side while attempting a left hand turn thru an intersection. The 2010 toyota yaris I was driving was totaled by the collision ($8,266.72 of damage to the drivers side). The yaris side airbags did not deploy. The yaris's left driver side door was collapsed into the yaris cabin with enough force to break my samsung note 4 phone display & damage its internal solid state drive.
