I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND IT WAS DARK AND FOGGY. I WAS GOING SLOWLY AROUND A CURVE, AT THE SPEED LIMIT ABOUT 20MPH, AND A TEENAGE DRIVER, DRIVING ALONE WITHOUT A PERMIT DROVE THROUGH A YIELD SIGN FROM THE RIGHT DIRECTLY INTO MY PATH. I HAD ABOUT 8 FEET TO STOP AND COULD NOT, AND T-BONED INTO THE DRIVERS SIDE. I HAD MY SEAT BELT ON BUT I WAS THROWN FORWARD AND MY HEAD HIT THE WINDSHIELD AND MY HEAD LEFT A SWELL IN THE WINDSHIELD, LIKE A LUMP OR DENT, AND THE GLASS WAS SHATTERED SOMEWHAT BUT ALL STILL INTACT. NONE THE LESS I REMAINED CONSCIIOUS BUT STILL HAD A MINOR CONCUSSION WHICH GAVE ME HEADACHES FOR UP TO ABOUT 8 WEEKS AFTERWARDS. I SOUGHT MEDICAL ATTENTION BUT THEY FELT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO BUT SAID TO COME BACK IF IT GOT WORSE. I REMEMBER THAT I OFTEN WONDERED IF THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE SEATBELT. IT WOULD SOMETIMES LOCK WHEN I PUT IT ON, BUT SOMETIMES, AND FREQUENTLY IT DID NOT LOCK IN. THAT IS EVEN THOUGH IT LOCKED INTO THE CLAMP, IT WAS OFTEN STILL LOOSE. SO ANYWAY IT WAS LOOSE AND DIDN'T RESTRAIN ME THAT TIME WHEN I NEEDED IT. I DON'T KNOW AFTER ALL THESE YEARS IF THERE ARE TOO MANY OF THESE ON THE ROAD. *TR
