## Narrative
I was rear ended by a driver going approximately 35-45mph while I was coming to a near stop at a stop light, driver struck me totalling my vehicle and gaming me up to the right and down into the ditch alongside the road, my airbags never deployed but at fault party aurbags did. At some point during the accident most likely during the initial impact the driver side seat of my f150 broke resulting in my seat laying flat and me laying on top of it. The seat was a powered movement seat, the seat appears to have broke the back rest movement or retaining device.  The seat failing to keep me in the correct upright position may have attributed to a severe back injury.  Vehicle was taken to insurance salvage yard by state farm, was also investigated by state farm insurance adjuster but any additional info was not provided to me beyond the vehicle is a total loss  At the time of the accident no warning lights were present however a emissions light was intermittent for 02 sensor, after the accident several lights were present for airbag/accident and rear parking aid sensors
