Yes sue her and get an M3

Ouch. Glad to hear you're okay.

Yeah, it'll be interesting if "sudden acceleration" of the Camry is brought up.

You should have kneed that bish in her raggedy old crotch

Thanks for all of the responses guys. So to try to answer a few of the questions:

She was being stubborn by denying she ran a red light, even after the cop took the witnesses statements. My mother was the closest to the area so she came to pick me up. My mom works for a law firm and made it very clear to the lady that she could handle this the civil and simple way, or the hard way.

All of the witnesses were strangers. I am not exactly sure what happened after the impact. All i know is that instantly some lady was talking to me through my speakers, i told her my position and what happened and BMW emergency assistance or whatever its called, contacted the police and emergency people immediatly.

I already spoke with one of the attorneys that my mother works for and he seems to think i will be just fine. he wants me to go see my primary physician tomorrow for a follow up. He told me he handled a case exactly like mine a few months ago and he got the victim $20,000 after her car was paid for. Now I am not looking for any hand outs, but if this old lady continues to deny the fact that she was at fault and tries to fight me, I will pursue her for the pain and suffering, hospital bills, and loss of work that will be associated with my scenario

I already went and talked to my salesman at the BMW dealership today. The E90 that i just wrecked was just bought on December 19th of last year. They had a pretty clean black 2009 335i on the lot with 11k on the odometer. Hopefully it will not take too long to get a nice insurance check. I will keep you guys informed.

Thanks!

I was thinking the exact same thing. That scenario might actually benefit my case. That would further more prove my statement and side.

Thanks Ken. I do plan on buying another E9x, just don't know if I will have something before the Lakefront meet. Who knows, maybe I will show up in something with an 'M' badge

Does anyone else find it amazing that the lights are or is it just me?
