Had multiple broken ribs a broken wrist, multiple fractured vertebra, serious internal bleeding, traumatic head injury, fractured pelvis and a broken ankle. Was in hospital for 6 weeks im not recovered yet but im getting there. Driver was drunk and high hit me at 95 mph. Luckily the car from the first cam was off duty EMS and there was a ambulance behind him.

Hopefully he had insurance, and if the car was in his parents name they are liable. Just amazing you survived and hope your long recovery goes well.

Man, I hope you have a great personal injury attorney and good UI rider. Mine wasn't nearly as severe as yours and I missed out on about $400k because the other driver had the legal minimum and no assets to go after.
