I was driving and my two friends are both on the right side of the car as we head to downtown. We are going down this street Templeton Gap. Nothing out of the usual, just that they have a lot of like small blocks where vehicles turn onto Templeton Gap and such. Any who I'm driving down Templeton Gap, there is a car beside me driving at like the same speed as me down the street in the right lane. I'm in the left. I can't see the car anymore so he must be in my blind spot.
But we are driving. Then from one of the streets I see this dark blue SUV stop at a stop sign, put on their left turn signal. I look at the non existent traffic on the other side and see its safe for her to go after me and this vehicle. AFTER
So this SUV eases out slowly, and then comes out into the middle of street. So I slow down a little, cause she I see she shouldn't have decided to just jump out and pause. Then I notice that they have seemingly stopped right in front of my car. I already understand that its too late to throw on brakes and all I can think to do to protect my two friends was turn the wheel and hit her vehicle with my drivers side and not the whole front of the car. Now its a lot easier to explain this but this all took place in less than like 15 seconds. When she came up into the street my car was less than 50 feet (maybe) from her.
We collide, its inevitable. I see the damage done to my car, and then air bag. Next thing I bring myself to remember is my friend Kyle who was in the back seat saying something. The car is still rolling. I put on the brakes which still work and put the car in park and take out the keys. Its at this time I realise that the car is smokey as fuck and try and open my door. TRY being the right word. Cause I had to shove my body weight against the door to open it, and even then I could barely get out. I'm coughing and I don't even feel my body. Apparently I can stand, but in seeing the way we hit the car and the way I heard the car crunch seems like my legs should be trapt. Next thing I know, there is this white guy with black hair and glasses talking to me. I'm not understanding him but I just nod. Then he takes me to the side walk right next to my car, cause I pulled over, and I sit. I don't even look at the other car. I don't even remember it really. Police get there and then an ambulance and I start to realize that my arms hurt like no other. I called the insurance company that was all I could function myself to do. Then after all that was done. The police gave her the ticket. I didn't get anything, cause I thought for sure I was doomed, since I'm the 20 years old and they were adults in the car, then I have two passengers the same age. Come on now, we all know that they never trust the kids. But the guy that rushed over filled out a witness thing, and he was on our side and said the lady gave me no choice. Then if that didn't beat all and make me feel better (ish) The police came over and told me that He couldn't assume anything but that he feels it wasn't my fault and was worried about my well being and such.

Fun fun.
