So relieved that you two are okay. Hugs for your little one. That's so scary.

Airbags deployed immediately. My 6 year old was slammed into hers. Trucks 911 assist called 911 like it was supposed to. We walked away a little battered but OK. Truck also called the emergency contacts I put in it.

Guy ran the light and slammed us at high speed.


Also, addiction is posting a Tbone review while IN THE ER.......which I did.

But this truck did impress. He hit me so hard he nearly knocked me out of the intersection. I was coming from that road closed sign. The hit swung me 90 degrees and damn near off the road. I was rolling in electric mode maybe 20 mph so I would hit the next light perfectly. He ended up past my truck. It hit so hard the rear door clipped his car as he was passing. And this is a shitbox 90s escort station wagon. Crushed the front end of his car. Radiator fluid and it looked like oil everywhere. I will definitely get another Maverick.

Dang, man, glad your a daughter and you weren’t seriously injured. Hate that you’ll have to wait to replace this one.

Wow! So sorry to hear, but glad to hear you & your daughter are OK. Tell your Insurance company to start calling dealers now to find your replacement as I hear some people can't qualify for loans when their Mavericks arrive.

where I grew up a T-Bone accident is when 1 person hits the other dead on in the middle of their vehicle (like a letter T viewed from above). In this case, he would have needed to hit straight into the middle of your cab from the side. I think the term for your hit is "clipped", because he clipped your front corner? :unsure:
I know right ? I was looking at the door in the photos LOL

Revisiting…I
A couple things. One, booster seats are used by weight not age. She was not in one. Also she was in the front seat. She was actually in the best spot other than the driver's seat. The rear seat was whipped around and hit his car. That would have been an even harder hit on her. I don't subscribe to the ever changing safety rules. Don't make her wear helmet and knee pads when she rides a bike either. I do make them wear seat belts but realize that could kill them too. In this instance the seat belt held her in her seat and mine was useless. It's the side curtain airbags that did their job. But hey I grew up riding in the truck bed...
Fondly remember dad putting me and my sis on the back of the truck, the camper shell drawers full of little golden books, and looking the window ;) We turned out ok I reckon.

I'm glad you and your kid are okay, vehicles can always be replaced.

I was driving home from work Monday in my 2020 Ford Escape that I'm trading off when my marverick gets built and comes in. I was in the left lane heading out of town on the highway going about 50mph, the lady a few car lengths ahead of me in the right lane made a left turn from the right lane and I had nowhere to go with traffic on my right. I T-Boned her, my airbags didn't go off, my 911 assist didn't call anyone, the only thing that worked was my seatbelt.

The good thing is the older lady and her husband were ok. My knee hurts from slamming the dash on the left side of the steering wheel but, other than that I'm fine. My vehicle goes into the shop Monday and it should be fixed with no issue. I've been driving it all week as it's still drivable.

I've been a Police Officer since 2003, I've had a clean record since 1997, had tons of pursuits and high rate of speed driving to domestics, etc. Now my record is tainted :-( At least it wasn't my fault.

Well I'm in a greenlight/greenlight situation.
He is claiming I ran the red. Today I pulled up my tracking system and took it to the officer showing I was driving less than 25 mph. My truck was also taking the entire intersection up. That leaves two explanations. Either he saw me and hit me on purpose (he never touched his brakes. Zero skid marks from him. ) which is a huge screw up for him anyhow or he never saw my bright white truck in the intersection. If he never saw me then he never saw the light. Now I proved I was not blowing through the intersection but CRAWLING through it and was almost all the way through it.
