Dallas, Texas I was a victim of a hit and run 18 Wheeler. They decided they didnt want to pay the toll or wasnt paying attention. Either way they ran over a car with two young women. Their car got trapped under the big rig, when it broke free their car slammed into mine. I hit the median and spun 5 lanes across 35E.
The trucker never stopped. I ended up with a totaled car and the 2 young women spent months in the hospital and rehab.
Still have ptsd about it, happened a few years back.
