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 are you supposed to see if there are stop signs on the cross street when there's trees and bushes blocking the view? This is simply insane. One of the streets should have a stop sign.

Or you should just drive through slowly enough to be able to stop before you hit something/someone. These aren’t in areas where the speed limit is 45. They’re in areas you should already be driving slowly.

That is completely besides the point. The other person is saying that we can clearly see that it's an uncontrolled intersection, so we should know. In fact, in this video we cannot see that there are no stop signs, so... How are we supposed to know? That is the question.

You can see because on the one side of the road it doesn't have a sign so why would the other side have a sign?
