| I was driving our 2008 fusion on winding roads near our home in wnc. i was into a switch back turn and was approached by an oncoming vehicle which was on my side of the double yellow line. i did not have to swerve but allowed plenty of room for the other vehicle to pass. as they passed i was pulled into the snow and ice and off the road. i hit the side of a mountain and came to an instant stop. our vehicle has sustained many thousands of dollars worth of damage ie front end bumper and sheet metal engine cradle broken, frame floor roof buckled doors on the right side windshield. all this damage with no air bag deployment or seat belt interlock! i was driving approximately 30 to 35 mph and sustained several injuries among which are; facial lacerations and contusions, knee injury resulting in bruising and contusions and reinjuring of recent shoulder surgery. i also am seeking legal advise as to fords liabilities. *tr | |||

| I was driving home from work on rt. 511or lorain street in oberlin, ohio. the light on lorain and s. pleasant was flashing. i had the yellow flashing light i was driving 35 the speed limit and a girl with her two children did not stop for her red light and i hit her t-bone. my airbags did not deploy and my seatbelt did not lock. this forced me to grip the steering wheel with my hands and as i did this i bruised my arms, chest from the steering wheel trauma. i raised up from the seat and hit the top of my knees and they are bruised. i was taken by ambulance to the nearest hospital for treatment and release. i missed 3 days of work and still have pain in my muscles and trauma to my body. i have contacted ford motor co. for their response. i feel i should be compensated due to my injuries and missing work. and if i had been driving on a highway and this happened i could have been hurt worse or thrown through the windshield. there was extensive damage to my car and i have a rental for over two weeks i have to drive. i would like someone to check into ford motor co. i will seek legal counsel if this is not resolved. *tr | |||
