[QUOTE="UselessPickles, post: 510831, member: 3256"] Unfortunately, that wouldn't help you in my situation. I updated the original post to clarify that we think the car "t-boned" me. We think it was pulling out of a business entrance and crossing several lanes very quickly, taking advantage of a most likely very small clearing in traffic, requiring it to cross behind a car that was to my right and slightly ahead of me so closely that they hit me. The car that was to my right and slightly ahead prevented me from seeing it coming until the last split second when I saw the headlights in the mirror (and prevented the other car from seeing me at the time he made the decision to go). The solution is to position yourself among traffic so that you are visible to every impatient person that is looking for even the smallest opportunity to dart around through traffic. [/QUOTE]
