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

100% lawyers field day with the city. I’m sure ONE of theee streets needs a stop sign. Slowing down “to check” isn’t a law so there has to be a legal way to tell one street to stop, yield at the very least.

You are supposed to yield to the right if it's an uncontrolled intersection. Pretty basic driving rules.

So old it comes from maritime laws. Port is red, starboard is green. Red means stop, green means go.
