Guess where I've been since 5:45 this morning: the emergency room.
I should have stayed in bed today. 4:45 AM I'm driving eastbound on the 210 Freeway, around the La Canada-Pasadena boundary, minding my own business, going to the gym. Some jerkoff in a big, black Mercedes sedan comes flying up out of nowhere, swerves into my lane, and takes out the entire left side of my car, moving it over an entire lane. The impact was incredibly loud and violent. My rear view mirror shoots straight up in the air like a rocket. Then the guy takes off, really punches it. I chase him down and force him off the road and into the bushes. I figure he's already taken out my left side, what difference does it make if he takes out my right side too. My door won't open, so I go out the window. I'm so pissed I'm shaking like a leaf. I approach his car and God knows what I would have done when a CHP cruiser pulls up and turns his lights on. The cop orders me to halt and put my hands in the air over his loudspeaker.
The other guy gets out of his car and says he didn't know anything happened -- his stereo was on loud. How can you get in a high speed accident and not know anything happened? The guy reeks of alcohol, his eyes are glassy, and he's unsteady on his feet. He's an emergency room physician at Huntington Memorial and knows the cop from the emergency room. They call each other by first name. The cop tells me "If he didn't know he hit you, it's not felony hit-and-run." I ask the cop if he's going to administer a field sobriety test and he replies "No, in my judgment he hasn't been drinking. Who's the police officer here, you or me?" Then the cop takes me aside and tells me to settle down or I'll be in trouble.
Another CHP pulls up, a sargeant. The first cop talks to him. I tell the sargeant I think the guy's been drinking. He points to the first cop and says "Tell it to that officer, he's writing the accident report, you have nothing to say to me." Then he takes off. By now, my neck, lower back, and left arm and leg hurt -- a lot. I tell the cop this and he says "What are you trying to pull here?" The cop finishes the accident report and leaves. I drive myself to the emergency room at Huntington memorial -- the same emergency room where this @#$%& assh*le works, treating accident victims like me. They take X-rays and can't find anything wrong. I've been to the body shop, Markham & Boling: $9,700. I've spoken to my attorney. He'll get the accident report. For all I know, that cop will put me in the blame. I'm seeing my chiropractor at 11:30. I hurt like hell all over and I'm so upset I can't work. F---!
