    Poor drivers hurt.

    My car is wasted, and my wrist is messed up due to someone running a red light...

    No shop time for me for a while...

      I've gone out to look for myself. If I return before I get back, have me wait for me.

          Hope you get well soon. I had a blue cast 25 years ago after falling off of a ladder (it collapsed on me) and I broke my wrist and dislocated it. I kept it on for 8 weeks. Keep it on and exercise what you can - fingers. It can sure help when the cast comes off; but watch out for arthritis like pain a few times for a few years. It was about 6 or 7 yeas getting over that.

          6 months ago, My daughter was hit by a guy running the red light while texting. She was not hurt but her car was totaled.

            So the deal here is I was making a protected left, guy in an MB Sprinter blew the traffic light, he caught right front corner of the car hard enough to shove everything back and blow all the airbags. The airbag caught my wrist and forearm. Not a major fracture, not even big enough to show on the ER X rays.... But on my follow up it is definately there nd it hurts like sin... Accident was over 2 weeks ago, pain just wouldn't go away so I followed up with my ortho Dr...

                So according to the Dr. 3 weeks in the cast, and then another round of X rays, and then likely 3 weeks in a brace / splint...

                    Looks to me like two cars both ran stop signs. Must have been distracted looking at the cop car from which the video was taken.
