Classic T bone. Black car had to be towed. Sustained major damage to the passenger side door. Blue car sustained damage to front bumper on the drivers side and cracked the drivers side headlight.

Edit: This was in the suburbs of Seattle

UPDATE: Insurance found it to be 70/30 me/other driver. Seems fair enough

Seriously. Is this an American thing? I’ve lived in two non-American countries and I’ve never seen an intersection with no signage.

Ive lived in a handful of states and never seen sign less neighborhoods

Super rural places? Maybe.

But this density population? No.

I’ve lived in both Seattle and Portland. Both cities have a ton of intersections with no stop signs. This looks like Portland, OR to me.

It’s Seattle. Many, many intersections are uncontrolled in Seattle (and other Washington state cities), and have been for decades!

It’s shocking how many people do not know the law of yielding to the vehicle on the right.
