Texting?
So, the car accident I was in turned to a 'no fault' status because it was their word against mine. Neither insurance company will pay for damages to my vehicle. When I got my senses back after the collision and after all the smoke/powder filling my vehicle I got out and breathed. I walked over to the other driver's car and looked into their window to see if they were ok. They were sitting there texting. They saw me looking in then got out of their vehicle. I asked them if they were ok... they said in broken English that they don't speak English. They kept texting. I did not have my cell phone on me, so, I couldn't call 911. They still were not calling 911 and they didn't try to ask me if I were ok. A few strangers asked me if I needed them to call 911 and I told them yes because I didn't have a phone on me. The other driver kept texting. When 911 first responders arrived the other driver still kept texting whoever. After the initial look-over by EMT and I said I was fine, and gave the gist to a cop, I stood there waiting. The cop then said to me, "it's raining, do you want to sit in my car?" I said yes. While I sat in the cop car I saw first responders taking A Lot of time with the other driver. The first responders took about 2 minutes total with me, while they took about 30+ minutes with the other driver who was also Not severely injured. They stayed with the other driver as they got their belongings out of the damaged car once someone showed up to pick up the other driver. Both vehicles were towed. I had nobody to pick me up. The cop asked me if someone could as I said no. If the cop didn't give me a ride home I would have been walking home about 2-3+ miles in the rain. I don't mind the rain - what I mind is the damn texting. I wonder still if the other driver was texting while driving - not paying attention. Now, I'm out of my only vehicle which is a Huge deal for me in My life.
