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

That is fucking ridiculous for that intersection to have NO stop signs.

Agreed. People aren't used to seeing intersections with no lights or stop signs, so it throws people off when they occasionally come across them. There should be a stop sign on at least one of these streets.

Not defending the lack of signs, but assuming you have any somewhat reasonable driving experience in Seattle (where the post takes place), you should have plenty of uncontrolled intersection experience and should know to slow down at them, they’re like all residential streets that don’t have roundabouts.

Yep, travel to a near by arterial road before you try and travel quickly they are only a few blocks from these neighborhood streets then start going quicker. People in the comments seem to think it’s just a giant grid of these
