I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF MY CONTINUOUSLY MAINTAINED 2008 SMART CAR. ON 12/3102015 AT 11:50 AM. (SUNNY, 80 DEG. F) I WENT THRU A CITY INTERSECTION, AT ABOUT 15 MPH, TO TURN LEFT, I WAS HIT BROADSIDE ("T" BONED), INTO MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR BY A FORD E250 VAN, FILLED WITH AIR-CONDITIONING EQUIPMENT, WHICH WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 35MPH. MY SIDE AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY, BUT THE FRONT STEERING-WHEEL AIR BAG DID DEPLOY. BUT MY INJURIES ARE ON MY LEFT SIDE OF MY HEAD AND BODY AND ARE AS FOLLOWS: CONCUSSION (CONTINUED MENTAL CONFUSION/SHORT TERM MEMORY LOSS); BROKEN STERNUM-CLAVICLE--JAW (2) PLACES (SURGERY IMPLANTED 2 METAL PLATES); SHATTERED UPPER FEMUR (ROD SURGERY INSERTED TO KNEE); BROKEN UPPER AND LOWER DENTAL PLATES THAT LACERATED MY TONGUE. TWO WEEK HOSPITALIZATION. I BOUGHT MY SMART CAR, BELIEVING THE SALES HYPE, THAT THIS WAS A SAFE CARE WITH "GOOD" RATINGS IN FRONT AND SIDE CRASH TESTS. EVEN THE PICTURES OF SIDE CRASH TESTS SHOWING SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, SHOWED MUCH LESS DAMAGE THAN MINE. FAILURE OF MY DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING, I SUFFERED EXTENUATING INJURIES THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN LESS SEVERE IF HAD MY DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. DOES SOMEONE NEED TO DIE BEFORE THIS ISSUE IS ADDRESSED?
