Turning left onto parsons road from 23rd ave and got nailed on the passenger side rear.
As i was approaching the turn, light was green, pulled in with a car infront of me, car infront of me turned, so im next to go, gotta wait for traffic to clear, light turns amber, still trafic, light turns red i need to get out and clear the intersection, and it was safe, but the honda odessy tried to beat the red light and nailed me, thank god no one was hurt, i had two passangers. One head hurts a little hopefully well look at it. My car spun 180 and i was facing opposite direction of which i was intending to go, ( i was going to a movie at ciniplex odion south common )
Had two witness's that said was not my fault and the van had plenty of time to stop, police called the witness and she backed me up.
Ill post pictures when available.

yeh i was thinking the same, my brother got in an accident with his supra in a similar way and it ended up being his fault.
But i dont know, it seems as if it is going to my favour because of both witness's that helped me out. and just the way she kept lying about things, she was the only one in her van and she clamied two others were in there, and that she apparently had two of her own wtiness's who apparently were her family ( cause you know, what are the fucking chances your FAMILY is driving by ), its Bullshit, her family came after and started talking in theyre language probably making theyre plan up. Fucking pricks. |

Were they asians? gotta be asians. asians love their honda odysseys (and their old ass previas, the jelly bean ones). and yes, i'm asian. and yes, i can so easily imagine them making up that bullshiet, too.
" she apparently had two of her own wtiness's who apparently were her family"
fucking ridiculous. |

After re-reading this, I'm sorry to say that I'm pretty sure you will be at fault.
When at an intersection, if you waited for the amber and it then turned red, that would mean the van would have already been waiting on a red. (because your direction just had the green)
So this would mean that the van started to go once the light turned green (for her direction), and hit you while you were waiting to get through. (The only other way this could have happened, is if the van was sitting there and randomly decided to take off before the light turned green)
Either way, I bet you will be in for a battle.

^^^^ this post makes no sense at all
anyhoo i was in an accident of the same type except no witnesses stopped to back me up
i could tell every single detail of what happened, and she had no clue because i believe she was on her cell phone and she definitely wasnt watching when she ran through cause she literally hit me going 20-30 tops and didnt brake until beside me
my report was completely full of everything that happened inlcuding the other vehicles at light etc etc and hers was one sentence long basically saying she had time to get into the intersection before it turned red (not saying she couldnt stop, just that she had time to get in, even though she didnt cause she was going so damn slow)
my insurance said they wouldnt even look at the police report and it was my fault
they said if i had witnesses it would be 50:50
my car was a week old, first year in production here and ive been waiting 5 months for a backordered part to come in so i can get it fixed
im sorry to hear about your accident, people are so ignorant |

Dude the Van was running the red, not waiting to go on the green. He was turning south from a west bound direction, the van was going east. the light turn red and the van kept going. |

Similar thing happened to me. If you have witnesses support that the van ran the red, then you should be ok. If it was still yellow, you are probably effed. I had a witness (guy was turning behind me) and he 100% agreed that the guy ran the red, and that he had plenty of time to stop but didn't.
Good luck |

| Something tells me you're not supposed to be in the intersection when the light turns red, regardless if you're turning or not. Obviously the van shouldn't have ran the red, but you weren't supposed to be there either. The fault is probably only a little more his than it is yours. |

Legally you are allowed to be in the intersection if you are turning |

She was an east indian ladie and decided to call her whole damn family over, why do they do that ( not trying to be racist ) but why must your whole fucking family of 20 come to see this? its nothing but an annoyance, the officer flipped at the family for coming and parking everywhere on the road, moronic drivers.
and please yes, re re read it :).
If i am in an intersection, already in it, not before, IN, and light turns red, i have to go to clear traffic unless i want to get smoked on the side which wouldnt be cool. Fact of the matter is, she tried to beat the red light and there are witness's to prove it, along with my witness's to say that she didnt have any and her dumb family who came afterwards started making up shit.
IF YOU ARE NOT THERE OR DID NOT SEE THE ACCIDENT, FOUR WORDS.
SHUT THE FUCK UP.
ahh i love ranting :)
thanks for the support guys :)
And good thing is, one of my witness's was driving behind me, and the other was to the left of me going north on parsons road, so both got real good angles of the accident.
Called insurance today and said they will come and determine weather or not it is a write off within 48 hours. I hope it can be fixed :( |

Good luck - quarter panel damage is very expensive to fix at a shop and will most likely cause a 240SX to be written off.
With two witnesses backing up your claim everything will be fine, provided the lady actually has valid insurance. You have every right to clear the intersection when it is red, and she has no right to enter when it's red.
The insurance companies are used to dealing with people trying to scam them, they aren't retards, and are not going to accept that the lady had 17 passengers in her van all suing for whiplash. |

^^^^ i agree, i had the exact same situation as you and it was deemed her fault, (it was also a van that hit me) :dunno: but i think you're 99.9% not at fault, like trevork said, the insurance companies deal with shite like this everyday...
goodluck with this, my truck was a write-off, and i'm kinda thinking your car will be too, 240s bluebook for cheap and quarter panel damage is insane to fix |

| wow, i can see why it pulls, your tire is crooked as a mofo, they probably hit your wheel in the impact and bent some stuff in there, i'd be sketchy to drive that |

| Ouch, that van must have been going pretty fast. My sister got broadsided by a truck doing 60 and it pushed a tool box across her trunk and made a huge dent in the other side of the trunk. I'm pretty sure your car will be written off, hope everything works out for you. |

Shitty deal man good thing you have witness at hand. Sorry to go offtopic but here's something that didnt happen to me but my mother.
she was at a intersection around 137 ave and was stoped. my sister was with her. Some stupid lady in her 40's infront of her accidently shifted the car to reverse instead of drive.. guns the gas and crashes into the van (odyssey too). If that wasnt bad enuff she drives away so instinctivly my mother goes after her and eventualy gets her to pull over. According to my sister she was a asian, philopino to be exact and has the courage to go "what happened? did I do something?"
Cutting ahead the front end had visible damage to it and the girl agreed not to go through insurance and that she will pay for the damage. Now what this lady thought was this damage can be repaired with a repaint that shouldnt cost too much. However we're talking about plastic bumper and a very noticible ding something that can only be fixed with a bumper replacement. After showing the lady proof from the body shop that this is going to cost her well over her expected 100 bucks she gets upset and tells us she'll get back to us.
What happens next? we get a call from the police saying a girl reported that my mom crashed into her at a intersection and that we have to file a report too. Long story short she had no witnesses and the best that can happen is a 50/50 from both insurance companies to pay for the damages. There was actualy no dings at all on the lady's truck but it was a old beater drunk with the metal front and rear bumper.
Shitty fucking deal if you ask me. |

yeh, theyre are some bad stories out there.
A coworker told me, last winter, a car decided to do donuts in the middle of an interstion ( what a fucking idiot ) and hit his back end on my co workers car and said he got rear ended. no witness, nothing he could of done. shitty deal sometimes. |

Sorry I misunderstood. It's still a tough call though. Because in order for the van to have ran the red light and hit him, it proves he was also in the intersection on the red as well.
Hopefully everything goes his way and the car gets fixed.

As I understand it the light turned red while he was in the intersection waiting to turn. If this is the case then he is allowed to stay in the intersection until is clear/safe to turn, even if it means on a red (as long as he entered the intersection when it was green). |

| that car looks like a write off brother. the whole ass end looks out of place since bothsides have damage. most likly frame damage man. my brother entered and yellow intection and hit a ladie that couldnt wait it was 50/50 just so u have some refrences. its stupid how insurance will try and fuck both people over if they have the chance they dont car if your more or less at fault they just want the premiums. |

LOL... I got Amar's RS*R exhaust...
The accident sucks though. I usually wait until I see both lanes of traffic stop when I get the amber on a left turn (no matter if the light turns red for a fraction of a second and I'm sitting on a red). |

Same thing happened to me, if the light is red and you are in the intersection, all traffic MUST WAIT for the intersection to be clear before proceeding. Especially if someone is trying to beat the light.
If your witnesses hold up, he should be find. |

Well so far reallly nothing has happened, few guys came to look at the car and see damage.
My Insurance AMA isnt really doing anything but letting TD Home and Auto take care of it. I NEVER got a call from TD, I highly dont reccomend being insurned under them, they really arent the most organized people when it comes to dealing with this shit. Took them a whole fucking week and day to Call me. After i called numerous times and was told to wait wait wait and wait, how long must a person wait just to frigin tell them i was in an accident. My insurance called them the the next day it happened and i was spose to get a call from TD the following day, well that turned out to be a week later? Great service. Not.
I can understand waiting, i mean hell, cars a car. I just really want to know who will be put at fault. From the sounds of what TD said to me today, its looking like things are going my way so far which is great.
Its really annoying to get places with no vehicle tho, Funny enough i have a temporary 240sx, red coupe 89, but far from what condition mine was in, ill be driving that untill i grab a new ride or if they fix it:)
heh you have his muffler, im sure its not cursed, more so just whats the word im lookin for? ergh o well. You know what i mean shit happens, lol, if those wheels get in another rip, ill get rid of them.
Driving afterwards makes you alot more alert to whats going around, especially if im hittin a left turn. Gonna make sure the next mofo stops. heh. Thanks for support guys. |

| Simple fact is she hit your rear end, which would mean you were passing through her lane. Even if both of you had green lights and this still happened, she would be at fault. Once you have entered a lane and another vehicle hits yoru rear end, they are at fault because they should be making sure to give themselves plenty of room to slow down, Hense the Drive instructions to Slow down at intersections and drive defensivy. Now the Cops might say 50:50 because of the the light was red for both of you but that is thier choice. Even on a green light it's not recomended to enter the intersection unless you know you will be able to proceed through it. If your lucky there was a redlight camera showing that you were much farther into the lane then she was and didn't set off the camera. Good luck man. |
