Reached my hand up and there was blood coming out and covering in my hands and i can hear her going, oh my gosh. Its all my fault. It was really horrific. I couldnt move my neck or anywhere else. I was a lot of pain and on morphines and i couldnt stop throwing up. Jakyala lost the hospital with social anxiety and lost of taste and a lost of motor skills and she sought out legal representation that was told by lawyers that she couldnt sue because the person had no assets to sue for. This had her to sort through papers to pay for an accident. The person said that i didnt have the green light. And it wasnt investigating. She wasnt ticketed and unless they see someone hit you and although everyone around says they hit you, they still dont get a ticket, so while being in the hospital or going back for appointments and speaking with the doctors or nurses and people go, so what happened and i go i got hit by a car in a crosswalk and i go, that person is in a lot of trouble and go, no.

Nurses and people go, so what happened and i go i got hit by a car in a crosswalk and i go, that person is in a lot of trouble and go, no. None. She doesnt have to pay anything and shes she got her license and she can hit anyone she wants. After talking to jakiya about her experience, we wondered why wasnt the driver held responsible for her actions.

I had to knock on the window of a texting driver so she would see me when i crossed and i got outrage. To help make vision zero a law, make a law of texting while driving. Any things might help by putting more count down stoplights and no right on red at certain intersections and campaigns but the most important thing is to stop distracting drivers by placing unmarked cars at corners and placing more emphasis on moving violations than parking.
