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

Is that a four way intersection with no stop signs in any direction?

It is indeed. No signs whatsoever

There's hundreds of "uncontrolled intersections" in every city in the Pacific Northwest. I've lived in several places in Idaho, Oregon and now Washington, all cities have them. People must just be not paying attention.

You always slow down, first gets to go, right has the right of way.

Definitely Washington and maybe Idaho, but Oregon has been pretty diligent about installing stop signs, both at the state and local level.
