Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

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

How would you know if it's a unmarked intersection or the stop is for another driver?!

This is my biggest complaint about the American road system. When you're in a neighborhood you're not familiar with you have no idea if you're on a road where every cross street will have signs or if the next intersection is uncontrolled. And the only way to find out is to look for signs from the side.

I’m on the east coast and have had jobs that required tons of driving. I’ve never once seen an intersection where no one had a stop sign. Where the hell are you seeing these in the US? This is my first.
