I was recently in a car accident I was crossing a road where i had the stop sign I looked both ways and there were no cars coming so proceeded to go. Next thing I know I was hit on the right front side of my car and my car went in a circle at least two times that I can remember. I was taken to the emergency room by ambulance my husband was taking my things out of the car he was never notified that I was getting a ticket they just asked him for my insurance info and my drivers license. No officer ever went to the hospital to get my story so should I be waiting for a ticket in the mail?

Did the other driver not have a stop sign? What part of the right side of your car got hit (ie front-doors-1/4)?
You may get one yet. The fact that no tickets were issued will have no bearing on the liability determination made by your insurance carrier. You have turned in the claim right?
I hope you're ok!

If you arn't willing to call the police you most likely have something to hide...if someone suggests that you not call the police that should tell you to get out the phone and call...PDQ!
I was in accident like that once, I immediately dialed 911. The officer cited the guy with 4 tickets and took him in hand cuffs to jail...he was a criminal and was a con artist too. |

Momo--you make some valid points, however, they don't pertain to this particular thread. The police DID respond to this accident...the OP just didn't talk to the officer personally as she was transported from the scene via ambulance.
