My car got totaled on my birthday. Have entered Dante's ninth hell... [View all]

A driver decided to turn into the left side of my car as I was driving through an intersection. Worse, she told the Fla. Highway Patrol and me that she thought she was going straight. Her blind brother in the passenger seat informed her that he felt her turn into the turn lane.

Happily nobody was hurt, but sure leaves me holding the bag: She was in a Dodge Caravan and was able to drive away after being ticketed. I'm without a car and shopping online is a pain. Haven't been able to sleep or eat since. My car is at an auction lot in Jacksonville being sold as salvage.
