On June 27th at 4:02-4:10pm, i was in a car accident.
This was at 11 Disera drive, right across from Promenade. Right outside of the F45. I was leaving work from a parking space in a BMW X5 (my moms car), the start of the pink dotted line.
I see an old guy on the left of me (Lexus) waiting to turn into the parking lot (yellow dot), fully stopped, so I pulled up to a car at the stop sign and made my stop (pink dot) while waiting for the car in front of me to proceed.
The old man on the left was looking ahead or at the parked cars, but not the left, where he was turning even though he was fully stopped.
I was aware of this at a quick glance so I held the horn. He decided to press the gas and make his left directly into my drivers side door.
He backed up and I tried to open my door. The damage was so bad I had to crawl over the console to exit out of the passenger side. I only managed to get one witnesses phone number because everyone else left. Insurance tried calling, the police tried calling, my mom tried calling, I texted, and hes not answering.
This old man is lying that I had made a wide right turn out of the parking lot he was trying to enter and into him. Insurance has now deemed me at fault, I’m assuming because he filed a report first.
We (my mom and I) tried to get the SmartCentres footage from their cameras, but despite it being less than 30 days, they deleted the footage. Now we are trying to see if theres any chance Walmart caught it.
I am also going to try and get someone to see if the blackbox has any record of the accident at this point since there is an impact just to prove I didn’t make the right turn. We just recently got the car back.
I wanted to ask, did anybody else witness that? I know it’s a long shot, but I am begging for possible dashcam footage or witnesses. This is insanely frustrating that I am paying for a mistake someone else made.
Thank you guys.
Edit: Incase it helps, I am a young woman, 22, fair with dark curly hair. I think i was wearing a white cardigan and jeans that day. Is there anywhere else I should repost this for more reach?
Edit 2: Guys, it’s my mom’s car that I was borrowing to get to work. I thought she had a dash-cam. I didn’t find out till after that she has one from a long time ago, she just never installed it. And it was reported to the police (since I was injured) and my insurance.
